Hey there,
i am a db/php novice and trying to implement a fuzzy search. i found some functions with examples like metaphone and levenstein but i dont know how i can use them efficiently with mysql. do i have to select all fields before comparison in any case? are there articles with detailed description on this? would be glad about every help.
