I don't belive that it does. If you have a search in this forum, you should find a thread that addresses this question....

Thank you for the replies.

Would it make a difference (in speed) if it is an indexed search instead of MySQL search?

What is the alogrithm for the internal indexed search? Maybe I can write a PHP version for it, but currently I am having a hard time try to understand it. Have anyone ever done a simliar script? using GT's score_table and word_table.

Thanks

Hi,

It's not trivial at all. If you are on a dedicated server, what you may have better luck with is our new mysql 4 driver. This produces fairly good results using mysql 4 built in full text indexing, and would be quite easy to replicate in php.

If this is an option for you, let me know and I'll send you the perl code.

Cheers,

Alex
