The advantage to doing this is you don't need to name your files a particular way and you can include entry excerpts and other fun tidbits. Just depends really on what you want the script to do for you. Ouch. :)

I don't know how, but I *totally* missed that post! Well, I know how - that's when the current work project began, and my time reading anything online has been cut short. YOUR solution looks even more wonderful! I just wonder how long it will take to query through my 1600 entries. And ... another thought ... if there are multiple posts on one day, will it link to just one post or to the daily archive for that day? (I have both individual & daily archives set up.) We have to get the search set up here later this week! It's moments like these when I truly need it! Thanks so much for pointing that out to me! OH MY GOODNESS!

The script loops through the file to find ALL matches and then displays all matches. :) As far as how long it would take, I don't know. You might want to leave out the excerpt or do it in batches (like make a file for every year or month and then call up that file based on what month/year it is or something like that) I only have 200+ entries on my <a href="http://www.digitalwoe.com/return/">journal</a> (where I use the script) but it doesn't make any dent in the load time.
