Hi, I have a site and I am interested in adding a search feature but I have no clue how I can do that. Any hints would be appreciated.

You can either add a search as a client-side Javascript or a server-side application. Client side JS is not very good for search engines, but there are some scripts available here (http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/cutindex14.shtml) if you want one.

If you have a server-side language available, you can use that, or look in to an external script such as Google SiteSearch (http://www.google.com/services/free.html).
