PHP is a scripting language.
MySQL is a database management system (DBMS).
Two different things.

Any tutorial/book that explains how to make a "search engine" using PHP and
MySQL can give you the overview. The difference betweeen implementing that
fuctionality via a remote connection vs. a local connection is trivial (a
minor difference in the "host" setting for the database connection
parameters).
