Hello!

Why don’t you change hosting like Markus said? I usually promote DreamHost, but they also have some restrictions (you can’t use fopen, just cURL), so you better check before signing up. The first year will be almost free with the code we affiliates can give. Mine is MAXIMUMPROMO , and it’s a $97 discount, the maximum affiliates can give. I won’t earn a dime from your direct referral.

Ivo Jansch de Achievo s’est posé la même question que moi : comment implémenter un moteur de recherche en PHP pour son site ?
Classiquement, les moteurs de recherche sont en deux parties :

I don’t know what your budget is over there, but you could try Google mini

Anyway if you want to host the search engine by yourself, _and_ you want the search engine to use spidering, but you can’t run executables, how are you planning to initiate a spider application? That said, using PHP directly for live searching without spidering sounds icky to me (although I don’t know about how much data we’re talking about)

Here’s an interesting standards compliant solution for smaller sites: http://www.gr0w.com/amos/growsearch/. Indexing is done on the fly, so it’s not a good solution for larger sites.

I ran into this situation not too long ago and decided Sphider was right for me: http://cs.ioc.ee/~ando/sphider/

It doesn’t take a lot to run and should fit quite nicely into your requirements. You can also add in things like PDF, DOC, PPT indexing, etc… if at any point your hosting provider allows you to run a few open source apps on their server.

# Zend Framework’s : well, do u want to reprogram entirely your application with a full framework ?
# google: well, do you seriously want to wait until most of your content is indexed ??

The CMS SPIP (http://www.spip.net) offers an integrated search engine that works even with safe_mode and shared web servers. The indexing process is diluted on fiew http requests.
