DaNuGai Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I am wondering if anyone knows how to implement the Search feature on a certain website. In other words, I am looking to add the Search feature on my website and I want to know how. I know one of my options is to use google (i.e. SearchThis site:www.example.com) but I am really trying to avoid that since it doesn't present up-to-date information.I woudl really appreciate if someone can refer me to a tutorial or an instructions.

justsomeguy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 If all of your pages are static files, then you need to use a program that can go through your pages and index all of them into a database. If your content is already in the database, then you don't need to do that, you can just write a small PHP script to look up records in the database with certain words or combinations of words in them.

DaNuGai Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 Well...98% of my pages are static and I do update information on the website on daily bases, which is why I didn't think google would be a idea.Do you know of any program that can index my website and store information on daily bases and provide search functionality?

justsomeguy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Not off the top of my head, you'll want to search for one (ironically enough). Expect to pay for it too, I seriously doubt you'll find a program to do that for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
