Hi again,
when I was verifying my search funktions on my webpage, I came thinking of,
how I will be able to build a search that would be able to find words which
are spelled incorrect.
I came to this point, 'cause I have a name in my Database called pettersson.
Some people believe this guy is written peterson ot petersson.
But I want all my visitors to find Him in each cases.
I read myself thru Rexular Expressions in MySQL and read thru
Fulltext searches thru MATCH() AGAINST() but I think, it would
not do what i want.
I remember an OpenSource Shop System called Interchange(MiniVend)
written in perl, which had failuretollerant search thru the use of egrep.
But I dont know how it works.
I hope I can find someone here, who has done something like that before.
I know it's not easy. So if you could help me a little, i would be very
pleased.
Have it nice!
Sascha
