Try combining this with metaphone() for a truly amazing fuzzy search function. Play with it a bit, the results can be plain scary (users thinking the computer is almost telepathic) when implemented properly. I wish spell checkers worked as well as the code I've written. I would release my complete code if reasonable, but it's not, due to copyright issues. I just hope that somebody can learn from this little tip! -Galen http://www.zinkconsulting.com/ ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.levenshtein.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+37953 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+37953&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+37953&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
