PHP Search Engine

Hi,

I currently have a website (running on RedHat Linux) comprising a
large number of HTML files and PDF's. I currently use PHPMySearch
(http://phpmysearch.web4.hm/index.php) which is a simple crawler, but
is clever enough to crawl PDF's.

I'd like to change one area of the site so that it's webform driven
using a PHP/MySQL combo. This will allow me to provide a complex
search to users that enables users to search for particular features
within content items within that section of the site.

However - I'd still like to be able to offer a site search. So: does
anyone know of a site search tool that can build an index from both
flat files and from a MySQL table?

So, I need a search engine that can:
- Index PDF's
- Search a database
- Search flat files

Any ideas anyone?
Cheers Michela.

Due to lack of time, i am unable to maintain PhpDig longer.
All who is interrested to take the project or fork it is welcome. The
only condition is to keep it GPL'ed.
