I need to do a Fulltext search for a whole bunch of values out of a column in another table. Since MATCH() requires a value in the AGAINST() part, a straightforward: "SELECT a.id FROM a,b WHERE MATCH(b.content) AGAINST(a.name)" fails with "Incorrect arguments to AGAINST". Now, I know I could write a script to query for a list of names ...
Is there a way to select entries from fulltext index in MySQL? ...
I seem to have a weird bug in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 where FREETEXT() searches are somewhat case-sensitive despite the collation being case-insensitive (Latin1_General_CI_AS). First of, LIKE queries are perfectly case-insensitive, so WHERE column LIKE '%word%' and WHERE column LIKE '%Word%' return the same results. Also, FREE...
I am making a little search algorithm at the moment, and I am wondering if MySQL fulltext searches weight keywords in order of appearance? For example: Search Term: php macaroni pizza custard In a fulltext search, is PHP more "relevant" than custard? Or are they both equal? ...
I am building a little search function for my site. I am taking my user's query, stemming the keywords and then running a fulltext MySQL search against the stemmed keywords. The problem is that MySQL is treating the stems as literal. Here is the process that is happening: user searches for a word like "baseballs" my stemming algorithm...
Hi, I'm trying to run a SQL script against SQL Server 2005 as part of the set up for my integration tests. The script works perfectly fine if I execute it from within SQL Server Management Studio. However, when executing programmatically, this part of the script that enables full-text search refuses to work: -- lots of tables and index...

If you want the relevance and also the results to be sorted by relevance the common format of a FULLTEXT query is: SELECT name, MATCH(name) AGAINST('Bob') AS relevance FROM users WHERE MATCH(name) AGAINST('Bob') As a developer I always like to make my code DRY(don't repeat yourself). Is there any reason not to write the query as: SEL...
I am using MySQL fulltext and PHP (codeigniter) to search a database containing RSS items. Problem is some of these items's titles use underscores instead of spaces. Since MySQL considers underscores as part of a word, these items will never be matched in the search, unless the user types the exact title including underscores. Server is...

I am currently trying to develop a basic fulltext search for my website, and I noticed that certain words like "regarding" are listed as stopwords for MySQL fulltext searches. This doesn't bother me too much right now since people searching for a given news item wouldn't necessarily search using the word "regarding" (but I certainly can...
I'm implementing an ingredient text search, for adding ingredients to a recipe. I've currently got a full text index on the ingredient name, which is stored in a single text field, like so: "Sauce, tomato, lite, Heinz" I've found that because there are a lot of ingredients with very similar names in the database, simply sorting by rele...

I have a search that uses fulltext searching in SQL Server 2005 to do exact matches first, then does partial matches, etc... However, the way I'm doing it seems overkill... I basically need to do an exact match against a Title, keyword & a whole load of other fields (I've not put them in the examples below), but the order for search res...
