Since you need an answer to your doubts "urgently", I would recommend putting some more effort in explaining your requirement. Is this text_item part of a database block ? Is it a database item ? What exactly is the search going to return ? Where are you going to display the search results ? Is this text_item going to accept many words ? If so, should the form search for the complete phrase, or for different combinations of the words ?

What chapter of the course is this homework from? You obviously need some sort of instring search. Reading the manual might help.
