Do you mean so you advertise it on e.g google.

or you want a google search banner on your site?

He wants his on thing like google

[Aid]

my own search engine like google or yahoo etc.

so you can add the sites and when ppl search it it comes up like googles but with a diff banner etc.

some 1 made somthing like this before on here.

You'll never be able to compete, unless you buy huge servers and create a spider algorithim, but with a lot of work you could make a small scale thing.

Using the Google API you can make one that searches the Google database :)

You don't really need any skills to do the search (www.tim-rogers.co.uk/search is mine) but to make it look half decent you need real skills in PHP and web design :P

[Dan Williamson]

That looks cool Tim..

Perhaps you could write a tutorial for all the newbies at webdesign :p

yeh i want it so it goes kinda like tims but instead i can add the websites etc.

Lol noob. Its a big thing setting up your own search site. You will need a dedicated Database server with a hell of alot of space to start off with ''/

Tom it's not going to be big just a small one.

[ozzie-ing]

Tom it's not going to be big just a small one.
still need a server i think

[Tomm]

Tom it's not going to be big just a small one.

Still you need to store alot of data...

[timROGERS]

I might write one when I have some spare time in the holidays

You could search websites for strings of text with the eregi function in PHP.
It would be somthing similar to:

eregi($search, $lines, $result);
