search engine problem

[Anon]

Hi,
I'd like to make a search engine. The easiest would be a search engine which
searches in my local files, BUT as they are all PHP pages with code in them,
the search engine will search in the PHP code instead of a processed PHP
page. What can I do about this? I dont really see it happen that I'd need to
proces every PHP file for every search.
Does someone know a search engine that deals with this "little" problem?

I'm trying to write my own search engine at the mo.

try reading the files in as the url
e.g. file('http://www.yoursite.com', 'r')
this should ask for the page the way you want and then parse it for links and follow them. Just like a proper search engine!

I think this will work I haven't tied it, it's just an idea.

bo!
