hi there i am creating a fulltext mysql search engine, i am generating the
sql query from form inputs , within a fulltext text field , i can input
exact matches like so "something1 something2" "something3 something4" ,
although there is a problem with this , the server defaults space between
words to OR , althought he user may require AND so the syntax is like

"something1 something2"+"something3 something4" or even
+"something1 something2" +"something3 something4"

this isnt really user friendly , i was wondering what the best way to
format this to a friendly search syntax , maybe like this

"something1 something2" AND "something3 something4" or even

"something1 something2" OR "something3 something4"

and formats it like

+"something1 something2" +"something3 something4" if there is an AND
statement

or

"something1 something2" "something3 something4" if its OR

where AND/OR are in a select menu , i'm trying to format all text
with "something" around them using preg_replace so it should be +"something"
any ideas ?
