You should save the relevant data from each page into a record on MySQL, and use full text database. One example of a tutorial is at http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/1304 You could also add Google search to your site, it's just a few clicks. They search what they already have in their database about your website. It isn't the best way to do it, because unless you are sure that Google already have 100% of your pages listed (on Google), then some pages will be missing. Plus if you do any updates to your site, you will have to wait for Google to recognise the changes have been made. Adding Google search does not mean you will get better listings, or more pages added to Google, because they only use what they already have.
