Hi All,
I am uisng PHP & Mysql DB for my site and i have a task for suggesting Categories based on User keyword input. I have written the query as below but i need to ignore white spaces of the values of columns while matching, how can we achieve it
SELECT search.*,
MATCH (name) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS name_match,
MATCH (keywords) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS keyword_match,
MATCH (description) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS description_match
FROM search
WHERE MATCH (name, keywords, description) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
ORDER BY (name_match * 3 + keyword_match * 2 + description_match) DESC LIMIT 0,100;
I tried using replace() which were throwing error
SELECT search.*,
MATCH (replace(`name`,' ','')) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS name_match,
MATCH (replace(`keywords`,' ','')) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS keyword_match,
MATCH (replace(`description`,' ','')) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AS description_match
FROM search
WHERE MATCH (name, keywords, description) AGAINST ('black' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
ORDER BY (name_match * 3 + keyword_match * 2 + description_match) DESC LIMIT 0,100;
