Hi<br />
<br />
I want to add a 'search site' function to my site. Is it possible to do using ASP or PHP (I know nothing about cgi). I don't want to add a Google pre-made thing either. <br />
<br />
Any thoughts appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks<!--content-->you could go about the hard way and have a database with search terms in it and search the db....then you could show the results from the db....this would probably be alright but would require you making the links.<!--content-->Actually, a Database search system is the easy way.. The hard way would be to dynamically scan the contents of each page for certain keywords.<br />
<br />
Both ASP and PHP can acheive this, though, its far from simple. But still quite doable<br />
<br />

<br />
It indexes all the pages for you. I also have some tips on setting it up from pyro...<br />
