i have a table with a FULLTEXT index that correctly matches certain words:

mysql> select title from movie where title like 'little%';
+------------------------+
| title                  |
+------------------------+
| Little Fugitive        |
| Little Kidnappers, The |
| Little Mermaid, The    |
| Little Thief, The      |
+------------------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select title from movie where match(movie.title, movie.subtitle) 
against('little');
Empty set (0.00 sec)

but fails to match others:

mysql> select title from movie where title like '%fugitive%';
+-----------------+
| title           |
+-----------------+
| Little Fugitive |
+-----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select title from movie where match(movie.title, movie.subtitle) 
against('fugitive');
+-----------------+
| title           |
+-----------------+
| Little Fugitive |
+-----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

does anyone know what this would happen?
