This is basic, and syntax is not checked...
if( is_array( ($words = split( '[[:space:]]+', $GET['keywordInput'] )) )
&&
count( $words ) > 0 )
{
//
// Initialize query.
//
$qString =
'SELECT xx, yy, .. FROM foo_table '
.'WHERE ';
//
// Create condition clause from word list.
//
foreach( $words as $word )
{
$qString .= "zz LIKE '%".addSlashes( $word )."% AND ";
}
//
// Trim the extraneous AND.
//
$qString = substr( $qString, whatever goes here to trim AND );
//
// Perform query.
//
}
