[UPHPU] Recommendations for Full Text Searching in MySQL

[Kirk Ouimet]

Hi List,

 

This is my first post to the UPHPU list. I'm currently a student at BYU and
I've got a couple of sites up at:

 

http://www.socwall.com/

 

and

 

http://www.yougetsignal.com/

 

I'm working on a new PHP project that is going to require a full text search
of my database. My table types are all InnoDB to maintain relationships so I
can't use MATCH() AGAINST(). SOUNDS LIKE is weak. Can anyone recommend a
full-text search solution for MySQL? I have limited rights on my host, i.e.,
I can't install any third party programs.

 

Pleasure to be on the list. Thanks for any responses!
