    Hi

    I know there are already many online dictionaries out there. But i want to have my own one on my own web site.

    Can anyone tell me of any scripts i can download and integrate into my website?
    Something that already comes loaded with a database of definitions.

    Thanks.

    You could parse the results from another online dictionary to do it on the cheap. Watch out for copyright though.
