Is there any way to make relevance when using boolean mode more useful? If not, are there plans in the future Fulltext development "todo" for making it useful?
I'm thinking of just counting the keyword occurences in records with a PHP script somehow and using that to order the records. Or doing a non-boolean fulltext search w/relevance first and then melding that in somehow with a boolean search. See my results below...my "peeps" are asking me for relevance/ranking - what do I do? Thanks. mysql> SELECT `page`.`title` , MATCH ( `title` , `descrip` ) AGAINST ( 'nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE ) AS Relevance FROM `page` WHERE MATCH ( `title` , `descrip` ) AGAINST ( 'nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE )HAVING Relevance > 0.2 ORDER BY Relevance DESC; +------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | title | Relevance | +------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Code 30 Specifications | 1 | | Center for Aero Information (CAI) | 1 | | nasdac Centers | 1 | | nasdac Electronic Parts & Packaging Program | 1 | | Report/Document Number Series | 1 | | misskermit | 1 | | COSMIC | 1 | | Consolidated Operations Contract (COC) | 1 | | Directives | 1 | | Directory of Project Libraries | 1 | | nasdac Technical Standards Program | 1 | | Outstocking Handbook | 1 | | nasdac Database (NAD) | 1 | | nasdac test | 1 | +------------------------------------------------+-----------+ 14 rows in set (0.01 sec) -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
