[PHP] Site Search for website

2004-10-18 Thread Rahul S. Johari
Ave,

I¹m working on creating a site search for our company¹s website, and am
looking for some tips. Creating the search code and the results doesn¹t seem
to be a big challenge... Indexing is something I have no clue to. I don¹t
know how to create the Index and how the keywords, summary and link is
generated automatically and goes into the database. I know there are paid
software out there which do the same, but I¹m inclined to believe there has
to be a way for PHP to read keywords off the pages in a folder and index
them. Or I may be wrong.

Any guidance appreciated.

You can use htdig for indexing the site:

Then build a PHP wrapper around the results for display:
