Hello All,
We have a table where keywords will be entered into a column (searchwords), up
to 3 unique keywords. Then this column will be used in a keywords search tied to
a Category(a Category has to be selected). The table will have a category
column: category. Basically when a search is done, it will be something like
WHERE category = '$CatSelected' AND searchwords IN '$keyword1'
OR searchwords IN '$keyword2'... etc..
or
WHERE category = '$CatSelected' AND searchwords LIKE "$keyword1%"
OR searchwords LIKE "$keyword1%".... etc...
Now the problems we seem to have is how we should enter the keywords into the
searchwords column. there can be up to 3. Should they be entered as:
keyword1,keyword2,keyword3 or keyword1 keyword2 keyword3(as a string). What
would be the best way to do this so that we can do a search on the all the
keywords entered into the searchwords column.
Any suggestion/advise much appreciated.
