I have around 50,000 *.doc files stored on my server(IIS). Now I want to build a search application in php that takes input keywords from user and search content of those files for those keywords. How to do this?
I been googling around for two three days, found few solutions as in phpword but that is for .docx file only. catdoc is not supported in windows. So is it possible to search content of the .doc file? And if yes, is it possible to perform a search with boolean operators(and or not etc.). php file handling functions were of no use either.
If not in PHP any other solution in any programming language will do. I'm in a desperate need to implement this and need a solution. Thank you :)
