Thank you.  That was what I was thinking, but google I'm sure parses out the
html tags, etc, etc.

I'm pushing google to the client.

I'm betting you, that their custom search is quite more complicated.

If you want something permanent for your web site, this is the GNU 
successor to ht://Dig.

Otherwise, for shell searches I use this handy little perl script I've 
had for about 12 years.  It could be converted to a CGI script pretty 
easily (with appropriate security considerations).

#!/usr/bin/perl
# tgrep
# grep only text files (ignore binary files)
#
# Usage: tgrep [-l] pattern [files]

$nameonly = 0;

if ($ARGV[0] eq '-l') {
     $nameonly = 1;
     shift;
}

# Get pattern and protect the delimiter.
$pat = shift;
$pat =~ s/!/\\!/g;

&dodir("");

sub     dodir
{
     local($dir) = @_;
     local(@names);

     opendir(DIR, ".") || die "Can't open directory .\n";
     @names = readdir(DIR);
     closedir(DIR);

     foreach $file (@names) {
         next if $file eq '.';
         next if $file eq '..';

         if (-d $file) {
             chdir $file || die "Can't chdir to $file";
             &dodir("$dir/$file");
             chdir("..");
             next;
         }

         next if -B $file;       # Ignore binaries

         open(FILE, "<$file") || do {
             print "Can't open $file: $!\n";
             next;
         };

         while (<FILE>) {
             if ( m!$pat! ) {
                 if ($nameonly) {
                         print "$dir/$file\n";
                 }
                 else {
                         print "$dir/$file",":\t",$_;
                 }
             }
         }
         close FILE;
     }
}
