Do you know if there is any free or commercial software for Bible to be searched online?
I'd like to find one for one of my new Web sites.

Thanks!

I am looking for the same thing. I found one in the Offers and Requests section around a month ago, however licensing prevents it being used in the uk which is why i cannot use it.

Not sure for what kind of subject this will be about, for the bible, but you can always download, freely, a PHP script called: wiki. A full bible pre-configured interface.

I was looking for an application with database containing contents of the Bible

I searched and saw the offer for King James but I believe I found a Website where you can download it for free - it is in html format. If I happen to find the site again, I'll let you know. If you don't hear from me in about 1 to 2 weeks, send me a message to remind me.

I did some searchin' at Hotscript... Found a few, but don't know if they will work for you. Enjoy. :)

I've found the site:

http://bibledatabase.org/html_bible_files.html

it's not a script with searchable function though, but it's free.

Thank you, the first one is free! I've downloaded it and will look at the contents to make sure it is what I've been looking for. It looks like I need to convert it to PHP.

Thanks a lot!

It looks like I need to convert it to PHP.
The search didn't bring up any PHP ones :(, but CGI should work on most severs.
Thanks a lot!
No problem, glad to be of service. :)

Ok ... this was a very special request I might say. Sorry I couldn't help on this one.

Actually, you did help me now that I look at wiki and it can be used for some other thing. Thank you! :)

The only translation you can freely use on any website or any publication is the King James Version. All the other translations have active copyrights and royalty attatchments to them.

I have the same feeling.

St Jerome's Vulgate (in the original latin) should be available, as should the Septuagint and several other older texts. They may not suit your needs though.
