Hi, I'm trying to set up a search form and using the LIKE command in MySQL, ie:

SELECT * FROM books WHERE title LIKE '%$search%'

Now say I have a heap of books that have the work [b]book [/b]in the title, this query works fine if you enter book in the search field, but if you enter [b]books [/b]you get no results.

Is there an easy way to get it to still find a match.
