Question

I’ve to ask your help to solve this problem.

My website has a search field, let’s say user writes in “Korg X 50”

In my database in table “products” i have a filed “name” that holds “X50” and a field “brand” that hold “Korg”. Is there a way to use the UNION option to get the correct record ?

And if the user enters “Korg X-50” ?

Thank you very much !

Answer 1

May be you should use full-text search

SELECT brand, name, MATCH (brand,name) AGAINST ('Korg X 50') AS score
FROM products WHERE MATCH (brand,name) AGAINST ('Korg X 50')
