Kim,

See the Pattern Matching section of the manual at:
  http://www.mysql.com/doc/P/a/Pattern_matching.html

A "_" matches any single character, while a "%" acts as a wildcard
match.

Thank you for your reply.  If at all possible though, I'd like to do it
from the mysql side rather than the php side of things.

Is there such a thing as a wildcard character that can be used with a
fulltext index that will return all rows?

cheers

kim
