PHP Search box...

[ritchie]

Hi,

I want to create a search box for my site in PHP. This will only be
to search my site and not the web.

I have never done anything like this before.
Is it difficult to do this in PHP?

Does anyone know of any tutorials etc.. on this?

Thanks in advance,
Ritchie

You could just post the form to Google - that's the fastest way to do it. But
it looks like crap and only works if your site is well indexed.

Otherwise, try hotscripts.com.

If you're looking for tutorials, you might like to take a look at this
one, entitled "Quick And Dirty Search Engine With PHP and MySQL", which
can find here: http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/Search_Engine

Or, if you want a ready-made package to play with, have a look at PhpDig,
which can be found here: http://phpdig.toiletoine.net/
