I don't think I am. While full-text indexing might help since

The full-text index would be useful on a TEXT or BLOB or some

the free-form string to fields that could be one of several.
I think my first attempt is close, but it's something to do with

My version gives many results because it matches ("SONY" OR "TV" OR "20").
I need it to match ("SONY" AND "TV" AND "20")
But this isn't it either (returns 0 results) because some fields,

so the entire condition fails.

One way might be to do three separate queries, one for each word.
Then store them in an array and compare the overlaps, removing
any that aren't shared. Then a final query where product.id IN(array)
That seems extremely inefficient and hackish though.
I misunderstood what you meant at first.
So, you want rows where all words appear in the row, rather than where all words appear
in any one column. How about this: every time you get a match on a term in any column,
count it as 1. Then add all these and compare to the number of words in your search
input, which you can determine either in SQL with a little text wrangling, or probably
more easily in whatever the client code is with a split() or similar.
SELECT products.*, companies.name AS company_name, categories.name AS
category_name
FROM products
LEFT JOIN companies ON company_id = companies.id
LEFT JOIN categories ON category_id = categories.id
WHERE products.enabled = 1
AND(
(products.model LIKE 'sony%' + products.model LIKE '20%' products.model LIKE
'tv%')
+ (products.upc LIKE 'sony' + products.upc LIKE '20' +
products.upc LIKE 'tv')
+ (products.name LIKE '%sony%' + products.name LIKE '20%' + products.name LIKE
'%tv%')
+ (companies.name LIKE 'sony%' + companies.name LIKE '20%' + companies.name LIKE
'tv%')
+ (categories.name LIKE '%sony%' + categories.name LIKE '20%' + categories.name LIKE
'%tv%')
)
>= [$number_of_words_in_input]
ORDER BY categories.name DESC, products.name ASC, companies.name ASC;
This will be ugly and inefficient though. It might be better to build and maintain a
separate table with the concatenation of all the fields, and fulltext index that.

I would suggest you order by something that includes a fulltext index on

Maybe check out the documentation on the MATCH()AGAINST() systax as well
as fulltext searches in general.
For example:

I would like to perform a query of a personnel database with an ORDER BY

Is this doable in the query?

Re: multilanguage web application with mysql database?
I have many tables like the table Person:below, in mysql database. person_id, first_name,last_name, mi, gb_first_name, gb_last_name, b5_first_name, b5_last_name, gender, dob where different columns storing strings in different encodings. All the strings/fields etc. need to be in the *same* encoding - UTF-8 Only UTF-8 can handle all languages. At anytime, a web user can switch the language and the application will get the values in the right columns to generate web pages. The purpose of Multi-language tables is to make multilanguage dynamic content management easier for web applications. For example, to add a person record, the user enter the English name, then switch the session language to gb2312, gb2312 is an encoding - not a language. enter the Chinese name in gb2312, and then switch the session language to big5, big5 is an encoding - not a language enter the name in big5. And then commit the data into the database. The whole thing sounds complicated but can be treated as a pattern and let a framework to take care of those and the code can be as clean as a single language app. I actually have the framework that works well for me with mysql database. I didn't do anything about language encoding in mysql database, it just worked for me. At least with english, gb2312 and big5 altogether in a table like table Person above. I noticed that (english, gb2312, big5, Jp) cannot work together (where jp is any kind of japaness language encoding). My approach seems fine with most western languages So after all such experimental work, I still don't know how to make a real multi language web app such that the languages are switchable within the same session. Any suggestions? Any web application known to be able to solve the problem? Thanks Everything needs to be in UTF-8. - the database - application logic - and all web interfaces. Forget about big5, gb2312, shift_jis etc! Also, web forms submit content in the encoding of the web page. So make sure your http content-type header is set to UTF-8 for all web pages. I'm not sure what technology you're using - php/java etc? By default, most web servers/applications serve content as ISO-8859-1encoding - which only works for western European languages. - unless you specifically tell it otherwise. In a JSP for example, you need to put this directive at the top of a page: <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %> This article is useful - http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/HTTPCharset/index.html even if you're not using Java technology. ~mm

Not according to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/purge-master-logs.html: "This statement is safe to run while slaves are replicating. You do not need to stop them. If you have an active slave that currently is reading one of the logs you are trying to delete, this statement does nothing and fails with an error." Yes, this quote refers to file locking/concurrent access to the bin files. What I was getting at is if the slave has fallen behind and hasn't yet parsed some particular bin files, you wouldn't want to remove them from the master until the slave I/O thread was able to parse them. Otherwise your slave would lose those database changes and thus be out of sync. When purging master logs in a replicated setup one must first examine the result of SHOW SLAVE STATUS and only PURGE MASTER LOGS up to the log indicated by Master_Log_File. Understood. But that is a reason for DBA caution, not a reason for disabling the feature as you wrote above. If the feature were disabled when there are any slaves connected, the manual should say so. It looks like other people have found the feature to work when there are slaves, so I'm sure it's just some configuration or other problem with my (and many other people's) setup. -- Baron Schwartz http://www.xaprb.com/ -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Not according to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/purge-master-logs.html: "This statement is safe to run while slaves are replicating. You do not need to stop them. If you have an active slave that currently is reading one of the logs you are trying to delete, this statement does nothing and fails with an error." Yes, this quote refers to file locking/concurrent access to the bin files. What I was getting at is if the slave has fallen behind and hasn't yet parsed some particular bin files, you wouldn't want to remove them from the master until the slave I/O thread was able to parse them. Otherwise your slave would lose those database changes and thus be out of sync. When purging master logs in a replicated setup one must first examine the result of SHOW SLAVE STATUS and only PURGE MASTER LOGS up to the log indicated by Master_Log_File. -- -jp Chuck Norris frequently donates blood to the Red Cross.

RE: Object-Oriented database
This really isn't what he's talking about - rather than storing data as rows and tables, you store as objects and methods. MySQL does not support this; you can get this sort of functionality using something like Hibernate (an Object-Relational-Mapping tool), which is free but has a learning curve.

BEFORE trigger abd REPLACE
We have come across an interesting anomoly in MySQL behaviour in the course of our investigations. It seems that when A table is equiped with both BEFORE INSERT and BEFORE DELETE triggers and a REPLACE statement is used against that table, the INSERT trigger is fired first and the DELETE trigger is fired afterwards.. this surprised us as the REPLACE is supposed to fire a DELETE and then an INSERT. This behavious was not found when using AFTER triggers which act is the expected manner. This was discovered by creating triggers which inserted a 'journal' row into a temporary table (using an AUTO_INCREMENT) and then by observing the resulting records. This was observed in 5.0.34 Enterprise; we have not gone through other versions to see if this bug is to be found elsewhere. Happily, we are not using REPLACE (and have no intention or desire to do it) in our application so this is not causing our project any real inconvenience, but it could come as a nasty shock to some. -- - michael dykman - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - All models are wrong.

multilanguage web application with mysql database?
I have many tables like the table Person:below, in mysql database. person_id, first_name,last_name, mi, gb_first_name, gb_last_name, b5_first_name, b5_last_name, gender, dob where different columns storing strings in different encodings. At anytime, a web user can switch the language and the application will get the values in the right columns to generate web pages. The purpose of Multi-language tables is to make multilanguage dynamic content management easier for web applications. For example, to add a person record, the user enter the English name, then switch the session language to gb2312, enter the Chinese name in gb2312, and then switch the session language to big5, enter the name in big5. And then commit the data into the database. The whole thing sounds complicated but can be treated as a pattern and let a framework to take care of those and the code can be as clean as a single language app. I actually have the framework that works well for me with mysql database. I didn't do anything about language encoding in mysql database, it just worked for me. At least with english, gb2312 and big5 altogether in a table like table Person above. I noticed that (english, gb2312, big5, Jp) cannot work together (where jp is any kind of japaness language encoding). My approach seems fine with most western languages So after all such experimental work, I still don't know how to make a real multi language web app such that the languages are switchable within the same session. Any suggestions? Any web application known to be able to solve the problem? Thanks

Here's the challenge, given a text field search box, someone enters: Sony 20" TV How do I search for that, not knowing which fields are which? For example, they could have also entered: 20" Sony TV I think you're describing full-text indexing. MySQL supports it but only on MyISAM tables. If you don't want to use MyISAM, full-text search engines like Lucene or Sphinx may be worth looking at.

Re: Object-Oriented database
You can store any object as blob, but that's not a good idea (unless object is atomic in terms of your application). If you want to refer to your data in object-oriented manner, you can use one of the ORM pattern implementations on the client sise. As for a separate data type, no, MySQL doesn't have it. - Olexandr Melnyk, http://omelnyk.net/ 2007/5/4, sam rumaizan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Is there such thing call Object-Oriented database for mysql? Basically can I store an item as an object in myql? - Looking for earth-friendly autos? Browse Top Cars by "Green Rating" at Yahoo! Autos' Green Center.

How about:
select soundex('Sony 20" TV' ),soundex('20" Sony TV');
'S531', 'S531'

How do I find products when a user types freeform strings like 'Sony 20" TV' or '20" Sony TV'?
I'm having trouble figuring out the logic/query I want. I know that all those "OR"s are not right. I'm doing this in PHP and mySQL (of course), so if it can't be done with a single query, I can split it up. Here's the challenge, given a text field search box, someone enters: Sony 20" TV How do I search for that, not knowing which fields are which? For example, they could have also entered: 20" Sony TV This is the one I have now, but (as you probably noticed), it will return many rows, I expect that most of the time > 1 row will be returned, but I'm getting a grip more than I want (or the customer would want), and also rows that have nothing to do with the search terms. SELECT products.*, companies.name AS company_name, categories.name AS category_name FROM products LEFT JOIN companies ON company_id = companies.id LEFT JOIN categories ON category_id = categories.id WHERE products.enabled = 1 AND( (products.model LIKE 'sony%' OR products.model LIKE '20%' OR products.model LIKE 'tv%') OR (products.upc LIKE 'sony' OR products.upc LIKE '20' OR products.upc LIKE 'tv') OR (products.name LIKE '%sony%' OR products.name LIKE '20%' OR products.name LIKE '%tv%') OR (companies.name LIKE 'sony%' OR companies.name LIKE '20%' OR companies.name LIKE 'tv%') OR (categories.name LIKE '%sony%' OR categories.name LIKE '20%' OR categories.name LIKE '%tv%') ) ORDER BY categories.name DESC, products.name ASC, companies.name ASC; (and that just gets uglier the more words in the search) ++--+--+--+---+ | id | name | model| company_name | category_name | ++--+--+--+---+ | 1 | 20" TV | STV20-KVR-HD | Sony | Tube | <--- | 2 | 36" TV | STV36-KVR-HD | Sony | Tube | | 4 | Ultra-Plasma 62" | UP62F900 | Sony | Plasma| | 5 | Value Plasma 38" | VPR542_38| Sony | Plasma| | 6 | Power-MP3 5gb| 09834wuw34 | Sony | MP3 Players | | 3 | Super-LCD 42"| SLCD42hd002 | Sony | LCD | | 7 | Super-Player 1gb | SP1gb| Sony | Flash | | 8 | Porta CD | pcd500 | Sony | CD Players| .. ++--+--+--+---+ Obviously the person wanted id = 1 in this case. Unrelated, is there any speed improvement using JOIN instead of LEFT JOIN ? Think millions of products. Thanks for help and suggestions...
