Hello Jon, 

A lot of what you said went over my head. I no zero experiance with Zend, and I dont know what "Lucene" is.
I'll look into Zend_Search, and the link provided.

Thanks!

  Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] Tuning MySQL Full Text Search


  I would say build an index if its items which will rarely change.  There is real power in using a Lucene-based index for full text search that a DB does not really focus on and would meet your requirements better.  Ive recently put a 200k record set thorough Zend_Search and the clients were pretty happy w/ how results could be tuned and refined.  


  Also remember the fulltext parser is pluggable, example ...

  Has anyone written one for Zend_Search?  Id love to figure out how to cross the 2 w/o the need to configure my updates ...

    Hello All, 

    I've got search for very small database working fine. However, I'd like to tune this to have 
    different weights for words, because I'm not happy with the search results.

    Are there any good books or whitepapers on tuning mysql for fulltext search?

    Here's the query:

            $dbObject->DatabaseQuery('SELECT id, title, body, links_to,'
                                    . ' MATCH(title, body)'
                                    . ' AGAINST (' . $dbObject->Safe($searchStr)
                                    . ' IN BOOLEAN MODE)'
                                    . ' AS score FROM ' . DATABASE_TABLE_CONTENT
                                    . ' WHERE MATCH (title, body)'
                                    . ' AGAINST (' . $dbObject->Safe($searchStr)
                                    . ' IN BOOLEAN MODE)'
                                    . ' ORDER BY score DESC',
                                    constReturnArray, LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG);

    And here's the index code:
           $dbObject->DatabaseQuery('CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX skillings_index ON ' .
                DATABASE_TABLE_CONTENT . ' (title, body);', constReturnNone, LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG);
