Tom,
Sorry for the delay. I have tried your code.
SELECT id,AU,ST,BT,AT FROM ccl_main WHERE MATCH
(TNum,YR,AU,ST,SD,BT,BC,AT,PL,PR,PG,LG,AUS,KW,GEO,AN,RB,CO) AGAINST ('"ready maria" '
IN BOOLEAN MODE)
ORDER BY id asc
Without the space, as with addslashes, MySQL won't compute the sql.
This is the echo $sql. There is an extra space before the final single quote.
Nonetheless,
$sql = 'SELECT id,AU,ST,BT,AT FROM '.$table.' WHERE MATCH
(TNum,YR,AU,ST,SD,BT,BC,AT,PL,PR,PG,LG,AUS,KW,GEO,AN,RB,CO) AGAINST
(\''.clean_search_string($search).'\' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ORDER BY id asc';
MySQL still thinks it is receiving A boolean +ready and + maria

I'm just dumbfounded.
