Example #1 Basic SwishSearch->execute() example

 <?php

try {

    $swish = new Swish("index.swish-e");
    $search = $swish->prepare();

    $results = $search->execute("query");
    echo "First query found: ", $results->hits, " hits\n";

    $results = $search->execute("new OR query");
    echo "Second query found: ", $results->hits, " hits\n";

} catch (SwishException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

  First query found: 2 hits Second query found: 12 hits
