Yes.  What exactly do you mean by search?  If you're talking about extracting specific tags, patterns etc. I can redirect you to the regex section for further help and suggestions.  Other than that you're going to have to explain the issue at hand further.

sorry,

 

i have may html pages that contain text, i want to searc for specific word or sentence in those HTML pages because they are not in mysql database yet.

can PHP read the text in HTML pages and search for specific word or sentence.

 

I do NOT want to include google search code or smthg like this in my website.

 

Thanks alot

the strstr and stristr function sound like they could do what you want. These functions find the first occurence of a string (your search) inside another string (your html document)

 

strstr is case sensitive while stristr is case insensitive.

beyond that, you should probably look into regex of some kind
