Any one else with any suggestions? Remember, re-compile is out of the question, it's a hosted site.
Thanks.
If it's necessary to use FULLTEXT and not one of the other suggestions, you're out of luck. As Egor pointed out, you do this in 3.23 by a source modification plus a recompile. If you can't recompile, you can't change the word length.

I am dealing with a web hosting company so a re-compile is out of the question. Anyone have any good suggestions? I need to perform searches on acronyms like "php". Thanks.
