Hi all,

I currently have

$result = mysql_query ("SELECT title_id, title  FROM documents_tbl, url_tbl
WHERE (documents_tbl.title_id = url_tbl.url_id) AND keywords LIKE '%$temp%'
AND title_id != '$myrow[title_id]'");

this works to an extent, but 'keywords' is a text field and if $temp is for
example 'stem' I want it to match stem, and maybe stems but not system

I thought

keywords RLIKE '[\s|^]$temp%[\s|s|$]'

this would allow for a word at the start , end, surrounded by whitespace, or
plural.

Obviously this does not work (why else would I ask you all?).
Can anyone tell me what simple concept I have overlooked!

thanks

Jules
