I am making a search to look through my database at a string that I
enter into a text field. I got it to work properly if I enter in the
exact title but I wanted to see if I could find database entries with
similar titles.
I currently have this code that works:
@find = Product.find(:first, :conditions => ["title = '#{name}'"])
So when I enter in "Rolling Rock" it finds that name in the database
What I want to do now is if I enter in "Rolling" it will still find
Rolling Rock. I tried the following but it doesn't work:
@find = Product.find(:first, :conditions => ["title.include?
'#{name}'"])
I get this error:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in SearchController#results
Mysql::Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
use near 'include'#{name}') LIMIT 1' at line 1: SELECT * FROM
`products` WHERE (title include'#{name}') LIMIT 1
Any clue how to find the entry with only the partial name?
Thanks for any help!
