I am using Full-Text searching with In Boolean Mode. I am generating my query by using binding parameters. If a user types in a quoted string on the search form (in order to match that string as-is), the binding mechanism escape it with a backslash. The query runs fine and it appears to return the same results when I run the same query by hand without the backslashes. I just want to make sure these backslashes are not being interpreted differently and that the full-text search engine is treating the double-quotes as they are intended (and not looking for them literally)
E.g. ... AND MATCH (title, description) AGAINST ('chev* \"malibu\"' IN BOOLEAN MODE) vs ... AND MATCH (title, description) AGAINST ('chev* "malibu"' IN BOOLEAN MODE) They both seem to be Ok, but I just want to make sure now, before wierd problems come up later... thanks -william -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
