if you have the files in a directory (and not in a DB) you can use glob().

[sagacious]

my db and directory both contain the files but it doesn't works with google custom search though it counts the pages but i need a script for that as like as RapidShare Search Engines..

@sagacious
nope, never used glob() before.

[sagacious]

so can u guide me to pass through this ? is this possible to modify a rapid share search script to search through my file directory ?

read the comments of the glob() manual entry, what you look for is quite probably described there.

hey, glob is kinda like a file/directory strpos(), cept i doesnt return false, ever.

just use it like this:

<?php
$mydir = 'dir/sub-dir';
$myext = '.htm';
foreach(glob("$mydir/*$myext") as $item) {
  echo "<li>$item</li>";
}
?>

try it, after changing to $mydir and $myext.

if you want to search inside files for a word...
thats harder. a LOT harder.
but you can do it.

<?php
    $mydir = 'dir/sub-dir';
    $myext = '.htm';
    foreach(glob("$mydir/*$myext") as $item) {
        $inside = file_get_contents($item);
        $findme   = 'my text';
        $pos = strpos($inside, $findme);
 
// Note our use of ===.  Simply == would not work as expected
// because the position of 'a' was the 0th (first) character.
if ($pos === false) {
    echo "<!-- not found in $item -->";
} else {
    echo "<li><a href='$item'>$item</a></li>";
}
    }
?>
