Show full header Is there any way to make relevance when using boolean
mode more useful? If not, are there plans in the Fulltext development
"todo" for making it useful?
I'm thinking of just counting the keyword occurences in records with a
PHP script somehow and using that to order the records somehow. Or doing
a non boolean fulltext search w/relevance first and then melding that in
somehow with a boolean search.
See my results below, my "peeps" are asking me for relevance/ranking -
what do I do?
Thanks.
mysql> SELECT `page`.`title` , MATCH ( `title` , `descrip` ) AGAINST (
'nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE ) AS Relevance FROM `page` WHERE MATCH (
`title` , `descrip` ) AGAINST ( 'nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE )HAVING
Relevance > 0.2 ORDER BY Relevance DESC;
+------------------------------------------------+-----------+
| title | Relevance |

| Code 30 Specifications | 1 |
| Center for Aero Information (CAI) | 1 |

You could fetch a field as a non-boolean MATCH result, and use that for
your ordering, even if your WHERE clause limits the rows by a boolean
MATCH result.
SELECT `page`.`title`,
MATCH(`title` , `descrip`) AGAINST ('nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
AS Relevance,
MATCH(`title` , `descrip`) AGAINST ('nasdac')
AS NonBoolRelevanc e
FROM `page`
WHERE MATCH(`title` , `descrip` ) AGAINST ('nasdac' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
HAVING Relevance > 0.2
ORDER BY NonBoolRelevanc e DESC;
As for improvements to full-text searching on the horizon, I don't know
of anything, but you can keep an eye on this page and its sub-pages: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/todo.html

Hi all,
I'm planning to use MySQL's full-text search for my forum system
(possibly 5+ million posts). I've been playing with it a lot lately to
see the performance and functionality and have some

thought if "WHERE MATCH" is used it will sort that way. Thanks

Hi,
I am just trying to develop a search system for my website. The PHP side of things is no trouble at all. I have also set up what I think are appropriate FULLTEXT indices on the tables I will need to search.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
