I need to improve my current "search mecanism" but got stuck in a dilema : build one or use an existing engine?

I recently put together a large company intranet site search using htdig and a simple php wrapper script: http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/Search-This/ http://www.htdig.org/

I've used the Zoom search engine by Wrensoft <http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/> with PHP on a Windows system, and it worked well. Also, I've never used it, but I've heard that mnoGoSearch works, well, too. -- Ben Ramsey Zend Certified Engineer http://benramsey.com --------------------------------------------------- Atlanta PHP - http://www.atlphp.org/ The Southeast's premier PHP community. ---------------------------------------------------
