As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

I think I would have to convert my mysql data to xml first. I'm not
too concerned about performance. Its a case of using my XSL skills
to do my web site, or relying on my lack of php skills and not doing
my website. At the moment, I have php reading from a mysql database
and generating HTML. Now I want to generate HTML with XSL/XML. I was
wondering if I could mix the two (php and xsl) but maybe that's not
possible.
You can certainly mix PHP with XML/XSL/etc. but as others have noted
that is not what XSL is about. It is a transformation language XML to
HTML, or XML to PDF, or ... Zend have an article here

and there are many others on the web.
Using it for the purpose you describe is equivalent to taking a power
drill and using it as a hammer. It might work but it isn't the right
tool for the job.
I'm having a problem in understanding what it is in PHP that you think
you'll have problems with. Based on my experience with XSL I'd say
anyone who can understand that should be able to write PHP with their
eyes closed!
