first off... how do you know you are a computer geek?
to look for s_e_x in your database, and if you can't find it,
recompile it *EEEK* :)
For the rest, I am afraid, I cannot really help you, as I don't really get
the problem at hand...

me/alternatives

I have a bit of a problem with using freetext indexes because there are a
LOT of important 3 letter words in my database and as I am using shared
hosting so do not have the option to recompile MySql. Can't quite figure
why 3 is not the default (car, dog, cat war, man, bed, ....). Maybe so you
would have to recompile to be able to find s_e_x ;).
The other thing I cant figure out is how much data you need for it to
actually work well. There is a reference in the manual saying it works
better on bigger data sets but no indication as to what it means by big.
Anyway, this means I am looking for an alternative which can be implemented
on php4. Has anyone any suggestions?

Also in the manual it mentions freetext search
