monkeytooth Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Im horrible with this function and using it personally, and I know it can add an extra second or 3 to the overall query time but i'd suggest maybe though looking at your query string and the way its being built.. maybe..

litebearer Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 1. take a look here... http://www.iamcal.com/publish/articles/php/search/ 2. IF any of the table fields are numbers ONLY why bother searching for text in them ie picture_size, id_entered, price, date etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
