Searching for text within multiple HTML files

[anbaxter]

I need to come up with a way to search for a given term in multiple HTML files that are located in multiple subdirectories with in a folder. Usually I would just do this in Perl, but I'm working for a new company as a system admin and the company will not allow me to have Linux box, nor can I install Perl for windows on an IIS box (I hate it when management happens). So I need to come up with an ASP solution or a Java solution or a Java Script solution. I have to admit that I don't know very much ASP and I really don't want to make a java app. So that leaves with JavaScript. Right now I'm just in the planning stages. Does anyone have any pointers or know of any scripts that I can use? I’m willing to learn ASP so I might take suggestions for ASP also.

Thanks

what about index server? ms provides a couple of objects that will let you query the directory easily.
