You may not like this answer, but before anyone gets too far along with any
site search engine method using PHP, I would suggest a review of something
like http://www.htdig.org/. It is free, it works fast and
searches your
site just like a web browser so what it indexes is what your viewers see.
Here are some other references:

I use htdig with great success and index my site each morning so all new
forum posts are captured for use during the day.
