Not necessarily about perl programming per se ...

MySQL also has a searchable FULLTEXT index, though its still a
pretty new feature:

You might want to look at DBIx::FullTextSearch, a perl module for indexing
documents using MySQL as a backend.  It supports different frontends and

You can also try http://perlfect.com/freescripts/search/; uses perl and
DB_File.
