Martin, Anyone, I'm desperate :( PHP isn't sending my SQL correctly. It's not a MySQL problem. It's my PHP syntax.
Debugging: http://ccl.flsh.usherb.ca/print/print.html?search=%26quot%3Bready+maria%26quot%3B $sql = 'SELECT ... FROM '.$table.' WHERE MATCH ... AGAINST (\'"ready maria"\' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ORDER BY id asc'; Yay ... :) it works!!! (http://ccl.flsh.usherb.ca/print/display.test.inc.phps) If I copy & paste this SQL into PHPMyAdmin, it works. BUT IT WON'T WORK IN PHP. The code belows echos $sql correctly, but MySQL thinks it received: +ready +maria not "ready maria" See: http://ccl.flsh.usherb.ca/print/index.html?search=%26quot%3Bready+maria%26quot%3B $sql = 'SELECT ... FROM '.$table.' WHERE MATCH ... AGAINST (\''.stripslashes($search).'\' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ORDER BY id asc'; $sql = "SELECT ... FROM `$table` WHERE MATCH ... AGAINST ('".stripslashes($search)."' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ORDER BY id asc"; See (http://ccl.flsh.usherb.ca/print/display.table.inc.phps) What is the correct PHP syntax to get MySQl to read my SQl correctly? What am I f***ing up?
