Hi All,

Does anyone know of a search engine that indexes Javascript? I'm trying to find certain webpages that have specific uses of JS on the web, but the problem is no search engine lets you search for JS since they discard it when they index. I could write my own but I don't have quite enough computing power/bandwidth to spider the web myself.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thank you!

You might try "Google Code Search"
google.com/codesearch

GCS only searches source code that is found in packages on the web, not webpages themselves. I'm trying to find all webpages that use a specific piece of javascript. Basically I just need to search for a few simple strings, but these are always contained within <script> tags so they aren't indexed.

Thanks for the suggestions though

Yeah, I was hoping you didn't really want what you were asking for but good luck! Let me know if you come up with a solution.
