Default PHP enabled site - search capability?

We’ve recently undergone some major revisions on our site, most significantly was implementing php across the site. This allowed us to perform advanced sorts, and has decreased the time involved with maintenance and further revisions.

The one downside of this switch is the fact that our previous site-wide search capability has disappeared. For reusability, there is nothing coded in html (which a typical site search crawl utility would pick up) that uniquely identifies or makes the pages unique. We have a page id html coded, which the php code uses to go to our backend db to serve up the relevant page copy.

Does anyone have experience with this type of setup, and have found a good way around it? Possibly you have knowledge of some good free site-search engines, which utilize php, and ultimately, render up a search results page off of querying a mySql database. I’ve poked around a bit, but have not found anything viable.

Thanks for any help.
