Re: Search Engines!
Check out HotScrips' PHP search engines section. You'll have to sift through some crap but there are some true gems on that site. You might have a problem finding a true web search engine (most are designed solely for the website the script is used on) simply because running a spider to scan the web requires a huge amount of bandwidth and resources.

Re: Search Engines!
Hi Guys,
i answer to celticfan11, I was just looking into making a search engine that would run like google... just so i can learn how it works etc... I just like to play  In reply to Weasel: Thanks mate, I will have a look at the scripts, i didnt know that it would require so much bandwitdh. On another note... Would it be possible to make a search engine that searches other website.. idea one.. www.dogpile.com <-- like this... or.. Idea 2... Searching for things like torrents... From my website user could search for a item... my website would check lets say 10 other websites and then return the user the results...? Thanks guys... PS. I dont use torrent's or download "free" software... i think its wrong. Its just the same sort of thing im trying to do
