Sounds as if you need a database if you want multiple keyword searches and you have a lot of data. Make your computer the server and install MySQL http://www.mysql.com or PostgreSQL http://www.postgresql.org/. I use XHTML for web pages and do test locally on my own Apache server with MySQL installed, no CGI though.
