Re: punctuation in fulltext searching

 hmm well sorry to be unclear i know this works but it would return more
 results than needed also i cant expect users to add this themselves, like
i
 would have to add the astrerix to every word in that case like i do to get
 all words ;\

I don't know the MySQL issues (I'm now using some FULLTEXT indexes but
haven't played with them yet).  Note that the issue you're talking about is
one of stemming.  The most common examples are singular versus plurals.

One solution (if the built-in MySQL stuff proves unsatisfactory) is to build
your own stemmer (assuming you're building some kind of interface to MySQL,
using the MySQL API).
