Hi guys, I was wondering what the best way would be for me to do a search. The users have 2 options for tables and either can do keyword or exact matching. Right now I'm using REGEXP to do the work of the searching, only problem is that it is case sensitive. We are currently running MySQL 2.23.32 and have php 4 installed. I'm using the search with 5 different fields/columns in one table and 2 fields/columsn in another. Thanks for you help.
