I am finding a peculiarity in using the Soundex function in PHP (4.2.2) against the one in MySql
(3.23.39) . For instance, a soundex on the word "purchased" in PHP results in
'P622'. The same word using the MySql Soundex function results in 'P623'. The
word 'five' using PHP results in 'F100' while MySql results in 'F000'.
I have only caught a couple that are different so far - don't know if it's a bug in
either PHP or MySql or something than can be adjusted/accounted for in code.
