Use an off-the-shelf search engine... I've used Sphider on a couple
of occasions:

I'd recommend mnogo.

Certainly, as burgermeister01 wrote, what you propose is far from
being very efficient. You really want to index the keywords separately
from querying the data.

If its just a quick though, then a whole search engine might be
overkill - if you're running on Unix/Linux/Posix, then exec something
like:

find /document/root/ -regex '(.html)|(.php) ' grep -H '$searchword' {}
\;

No way. You do not want to grep PHP source code for your search words.

I'd agree this is a security vulnerability - but it's explicitly what
the OP asked.
