i have a table in mysql. it contains links, titles, descriptions and keywords for about one hundred websites. Not every site has a keywords field. i crawled Apple.com on a web crawler i wrote and i indexed the majoirty of apple's sites.
i linked the table up to my search engine and i had a problem. the code i was using doesn't sort by relevance. by that, i mean if a user types in 'Apple' into the search engine, it will return fairly random results. if i type in 'buy ipad' the ipad would come up instead of the apple store. i want the query to scan all the fields to see how many times each user input is in the field and then rank by most relevant. *f there is a clash, the higher id wins...basically.
btw, if i typed in iphone or ipad, the correct results would show. i have two different queries for seperate and together terms and would love to also know how to mix them together to have 1 query.
Terms together:
$query = " SELECT * FROM scan WHERE ";
$terms = array_map('mysql_real_escape_string', $terms);
$i = 0;
foreach ($terms as $each) {
if ($i++ !== 0) {
$query .= "AND";
}
$query.= "Match(title, description, keywords, link) Against ('".implode(' ', $terms )." in boolean mode);
}
Terms Seperate
$query = " SELECT * FROM scan WHERE ";
$terms = array_map('mysql_real_escape_string', $terms);
$i = 0;
foreach ($terms as $each) {
if ($i++ !== 0) {
$query .= "or";
}
$query.= "Match(title, description, keywords, link) Against ('".implode(' ', $terms )." in boolean mode);
}
You need to use an alias for your MATCH statement.
Select *, MATCH(tags) AGAINST ('search query' IN BOOLEAN MODE) as relevance
from scan HAVING relevance >0 ORDERY BY relevance DESC
