SELECT * FROM ardata
WHERE title REGEXP '.*2000.*'
change that into parameter, but if you want to search on multiple words as
OR, youll have to split them and do separate ORs on tile REGEXP per word, or
rewrite this one something like ".*(2000)|(leagus).*" perhaps, not sure if
grouping is suported
This may not help with the comma problem, but your app looks like a good
candidate for FULLTEXT searching, check out
