Looking for a free search script for website...

I bought one of those website templates that has a faux search in it -
now I want it to work, so I am looking for a free search script for my
site (it is about 10-15 pages).

Any suggestions welcome, thanks

Thanks for that. I downloaded it, but I need to dl something else? Is
it easy to set up? I am not that verse in HTML or code, can I still
do it?

I have used ksearch with reasonable results[1]. With very small
sites, I write my own since it is not too expensive to search in the
pages rather than a pre-built index. Lots of sites use google with a
"site:" restriction in the search, but I have no experience of that.

I use FreeFind. It was easy to setup, and it works fine. Per my
option, FreeFind notifies me whenever my Web site is indexed and also
sends me weekly and monthly reports on searches performed on my site.

If you want to see how I set it up, go to my home page (per my signature
below) and select the Search link (icon of magnifying glass over pages).
At my "Searching My Web Site" page, you can expose the HTML.

You will need a FreeFind account, which (per the name) is free. Go to
<http://www.freefind.com/>.

Have you been using Netscape and now feel abandoned by AOL?
Then use SeaMonkey. Go to <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/>.

Sorry, I am looking for a search for my site only, not a search engine
on my site. Thanks though...

FreeFind separately indexes each site that has an account. The indices
are not merged. Someone using my "Searching My Web Site" page will
indeed search only my own Web site and not anyone else's.
