Does anyone know of a good search engine for a local site?

I'm developing a PHP/MySQL site that will take images and text and
automatically create a website from templates. I need a good search
engine script to run separately on each of the websites that will be
built using my script. (i.e. search only one website, not many).

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good search engine?

Personally, it's not that hard to write your own to get the basics down
(don't expect it to be Google, but you can get it to be better than regular
expressions).

What you should look into, if you want one out of the box, is MySQL Full
Text searching. This does pretty much most of it.

I have designed a site for a client, but they have hired an internet marketing person to incrase their search engine ranking and traffic. He wants to put extra-large fonts on every page which will make the design looks a bit rediculous. He also said that the big text cannot be hidden. I am just trying to find a compromise. Here are the questions: (1) Is it true that a page with an <H1> tag and very big font size will make a search...

Hi everyone, Just out of curiosity I recently pointed one of my hand-typed pages at the W3 Validator, and my hand-typed code was just ripped to shreds. Then I pointed some major sites (microsoft.com, cnn.com, etc.) at the W3 Validator; to my surprise none of them passed. Doesn't anyone care anymore, or are the standards more-or-less looked at as guidlines for web design?

Hi I'm aware of the use of robots.txt and the use of <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="index,follow"> However, what would be more useful is to be able to control within a page which elements of the page should be indexed and seen by robots and which elements are simply page furniture and it is safe to ignore or not cache (e.g. adverts).

My manager wants me to develop a search program, that would work like they have it at edorado.com. She made up her requirements after having compared how search works at different websites, like eBay, Yahoo and others. This is what she wants my program to be able to do: (try this test at different websites just for fun). At eBay: - enter the word 'television' in a search field à you will get 2155 items.
