I want to make a online search/dictionary program. For example a user supplies a word and the browser returns a page corresponding to that word. It sounds simply but whe I got down to do it, it was impossible.
<BR>So can any of you help out, with the source code I mean. Google has one of the best search code, does anybody have something like that?

Sorry, if you had the words on a database it would be easy eg. on an SQL db you would just use a select statement, then you could say you want the word to start with poi for example and everything with poi would be found... otherwise you are going to have quite a mission

<BR>Sorry if this was no help as I know SQL is expensive but you could use mySQL (free).
