Downloadable PHP-based Site Search Script. View the ReadMe and sample Search Form.

The writedocSearch.php script provides a basic PHP-based Site Search Script that searches all site files; by default, up to 20 files that contain a specified search term and up to 5 instances of the term found in each file will be displayed. The script performs a real-time search, so site indexing is not required. Typically, no configuration is required; all you need to do is copy the supplied writedocSearch folder to your site and then call the searchsite.php search form from any web page.

The script is offered as is and no support is offered. For help with using PHP, see http://www.php.net/, http://www.hotscripts.com/, http://www.devscripts.com/, or http://www.phpfreaks.com/
