PHP Document Search

Post by ripcurlksm »

I have a simple MySQL database of reports which contains the company's name, description and a URL linking to that companies report which is either a .PDF or .PPT file (PowerPoint slide). I have a PHP search page to query the MySQL database, but is it possible to also include the PHP search to look in a specific directory and sort through .PDF text and PowerPoint slides and return keywords?

Regards,
Kevin

Looking in a specific directory is certainly possible, however sorting by internal text in either format is not natively possible.
