unsure.gif i'm building my own search engine and al i found so far is TSEP - The Search Engine Project

is a Search engine build in php ( tongue.gif )

but i was wondering if anyone saw something more proffesional ph34r.gif i dont care if (it costs $$)

the TSEP - The Search Engine Project is good enough but i would have to edit it very much to get where i want and without
knowlage of php ( yes ) this wont be easy .

So to make my self short : If anyone saw something like Search Engine written in php pls post a link here thanks ....

First of all - Why do you need a search engine ? I mean - Google beats them all. ( I Just don't find any use on other search engines ). If you would code your search engine on your own, and code it hard so It would find only specific things on the internet ( which are hard to find ) well then maybe there would be a use of your engine, but in all other ways - I just can't see the point why would you need your own search engine. ( my opinion only )

Well I Really can't imagine someone beating google biggrin.gif
Anyway - If you want to beat google - You really need a professional Server, professional PHP Coder team and to put your ADS Over the net. Maybe then It would work wink.gif
Anyway - Sorry for the offtopic and good luck on the Search Engine project smile.gif

IF you want to beat google you probably should consider another programming language,
don't (only) use php if you want to make a good search engine.
Good Luck anyways

i would use google nothing beats google heres some good scripts if u want them:


Description: This useful script allows your visitors to search the contents of your site by leveraging the 3 most popular search engines- Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Now your site's search is truly covered!





Google: Yahoo: MSN:

Directions: Simply insert the below into the <body> section:

<form name="jksearch" action="http://www.google.com/search" method="get" onSubmit="jksitesearch(this)"> <p>Search JavaScript Kit:<br /> <input id="hiddenquery" type="hidden" name="q" /> <input name="qfront" type="text" style="width: 200px" value="navigator object" /> <input type="submit" value="Search" /><br /> <div style="font: bold 11px Verdana;">Google:<input name="se" type="radio" checked> Yahoo:<input name="se" type="radio"> MSN:<input name="se" type="radio"> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> // All-in-one Internal Site Search script- By JavaScriptKit.com (http://www.javascriptkit.com) // For this and over 400+ free scripts, visit JavaScript Kit- http://www.javascriptkit.com/ // This notice must stay intact for use //Enter domain of site to search. var domainroot="www.javascriptkit.com" var searchaction=[ //form action for the 3 search engines "http://www.google.com/search", "http://search.yahoo.com/search", "http://search.msn.com/results.aspx" ] var queryfieldname=["q","p","q"] //name of hidden query form for the 3 search engines function switchaction(cur, index){ cur.form.action=searchaction[index] document.getElementById("hiddenquery").name=queryfieldname[index] } function jksitesearch(curobj){ for (i=0; i< document.jksearch.se.length; i++){ //loop through radio to see which is checked if (document.jksearch.se[i].checked==true) switchaction(document.jksearch.se[i], i) } document.getElementById("hiddenquery").value="site:"+domainroot+" "+curobj.qfront.value } </script> </p> </form> <p style="font: normal 11px Arial">This free script provided by<br /> <a href="http://www.javascriptkit.com">JavaScript Kit</a></p>

Refer to the comments inside the script. You will need to change a single variable to point to the domain you wish the script to search within.



Description: Need a powerful internal search engine script to allow visitors to search the contents of your site? How does Google sound? This script uses Google to enable comprehensive search on your site. Cool!




<script type="text/javascript">

// Google Internal Site Search script- By JavaScriptKit.com (http://www.javascriptkit.com)
// For this and over 400+ free scripts, visit JavaScript Kit- http://www.javascriptkit.com/
// This notice must stay intact for use

var domainroot="www.javascriptkit.com"

function Gsitesearch(curobj){
curobj.q.value="site:"+domainroot+" "+curobj.qfront.value
}

</script>


<form action="http://www.google.com/search" method="get" onSubmit="Gsitesearch(this)">

<p>Search JavaScript Kit:<br />
<input name="q" type="hidden" />
<input name="qfront" type="text" style="width: 180px" /> <input type="submit" value="Search" /></p>

//

function startSearch(){
searchString = document.searchForm.searchText.value;
if(searchString != ""){
searchEngine = document.searchForm.whichEngine.selectedIndex + 1;
finalSearchString = "";

I have no idea why you would want to make a search engine exactly.This would be a difficult project to finish.I do agree,Google has to be the one that have the most technology to be a seaarch engine.Besides,most people use yahoo! or google.No way will they visit your seacrh engine by from google.Once again,I do not know why you woulkd need to make a search engine.

I think if you want to be a successful search engine you might want to move on to paid hosting

If you want something better than google you'll have to do more than cut and paste codes I'm afraid. Google has a team of hundreds of workers who are all professional coders. You'll have to not only learn PHP but also another language or two for your spydering robots. I'd say your chances are pretty slim if you don't want to code.

Good luck smile.gif
