Hi,
I want to write a PHP script that will store in a database what
keyword was used, if the visitor came google? How can I get the
keyword?????? I figure this is REALLY simple

It is very easy. Your server logs should have the referer information
in them. They are somewhere under /var/log/httpd/ directory. In your
unix prompt, type "man sed", then "man awk", then "man mysql". These
manual pages should set you on a correct path to success.

You mean other than simply looking at your server stats where there already
should be a keywords used listing?

Hi,

In php, find out the value of the referer attribute, and then extract
the query and save it in the database.
