Lord Hoth Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I am creating a website and I would like to create a search function for it. I have a mysql database with about 2000 entries. I would like to create a search engine that functions similarly to the one on this site http://songmeanings.net/ but I have no clue where to start. I would like the results displayed similarly to that site as well but as I said, I am a complete noob at this stuff. Thanks, Lord Hoth Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/119387-site-search-engine-for-a-beginner/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
