dbo Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 So, in the past I've written some rudimentary search features for some websites, but they really don't function as well as they should. I know that you can achieve some of this with full text stuff in MySQL, but it's really sort of specific to the database at hand (correct me if I'm wrong). So I guess what I'm envisioning is sort of a search engine for particular sites... where basically they crawl and index the pages, and then that is what the search feature would actually post to, rather than searching the whole site. I'm sitting in a class right now bored, so just spewing some random thoughts. I'd be interested to hear other's perspectives on approaches to site searches, or maybe even tools they've used to do this.

Daniel0 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 You could use Zend_Search_Lucene which is a PHP implementation of Lucene. It's part of the Zend Framework but I believe you should be able to use it independently of the framework. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucene http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.search.lucene.html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/91895-site-search-engines/#findComment-471041 Share on other sites More sharing options...
