I tried it like this, $q = Doctrine_Query::create() ->from('Product p') ->where('p.product_id = ?', $search_term) ->orWhere('p.product_full_desc LIKE ?', '%$search_term%') ->orWhere('p.product_partial_desc LIKE ?', '%$search_term%') ->orWhere('p.product_type = ?', $search_term);
But it still didn't work...is my syntax incorrect?
