[snip] I'm using Informix SQL. Do you know how to do full text searching on Informix? If so, please share the details :) [/snip] You will have to consult your Informix documentation in order to discern if full-text features are available. Usually the text column where the information is being held has to be set to the 'full-text' type. You could fake this with PHP by taking your search terms and shuffling them, but this requires performing the query several times with shuffled requests. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
