Ok forget the mention of percolate. We have a large list of known keywords we would like to match against.
Product keyword: "Sony" Product keyword: "Samsung Galaxy" We would like to be able to detect given a product title whether or not it matches any known keywords. For a keyword to be matched all of it's terms must be present in the product title given. Product Title: "Sony Experia" Matches and returns a highlight: "<em>Sony</em> Experia" Product Title: "Samsung 52inch LC" Does not match Product Title: "Samsung Galaxy S4" Matches a returns a highlight: "<em>Samsung Galaxy</em>" Product Title: "Galaxy Samsung S4" Matches a returns a highlight: "<em> Galaxy Samsung</em>" What would be the best way to approach this?
