GME to the rescue! If you place your keywords in a Google Spreadsheet,
you can subsequently publish it as a GData feed which can be queried.
For example, if your spreadsheet was to have a single column labeled
"keywords", the following should work:
<script type="text/javascript">
<![CDATA[
var url = <YOUR_SPREADSHEET_URL_HERE>;
function lookUp() {
var searchBox = document.getElementById("mySearch");
var myList = google.mashups.getObjectById("myList");
if(searchBox.value == '')
myList.setData(url);
else
myList.setData(url + '?sq=keywords%3D' + searchBox.value);
}
]]>
</script>
<input id="mySearch" type="text" />
<input type="button" value="Search" onclick="lookUp()" />
<gm:list id="myList" />

I have a file, currently a CSV file, but the format is flexible. It
contains a master list of keywords that I wish to search.
The aim is for this keyword list to be used for tagging, myself and
others need to reference this list to see if the tag/keyword we wish
to use is available to us.
essentially I wish to search the file and display the results, it does
not even have to be aware of spelling mistakes!
however I would like to incorporate this facility into a small
website... soooooo...
is this at all possible?
its so simple, yet it seems its too simple to be done!
