Un exemple simple d'utilisation de la fonction de recherche MySQL

if (!function_exists('mysql_search')) {
   function mysql_search($table, $columns, $query = '', $options = Array()) {
      if (empty($query)) { return Array(); }

      $query = ereg_replace(&#39;[[:<:]](and|or|the)[[:>:]]&#39;, &#39;&#39;, $query);
      $query = ereg_replace(&#39; +&#39;, &#39; &#39;, trim(stripslashes($query)));
      $pattern = &#39;/([[:alpha:]:]+)([[:alpha:] ]+)[[:alpha:]]?+[ ]?/i&#39;;
      $regs = Array();
      preg_match_all($pattern, $query, $regs);
      $query = $regs[0];
     while (list($key, $value) = @each($query)) {

         $keywords = urldecode($value);

            $column = substr($value, 0, strpos($value, &#39;:&#39;));
            $keywords = trim(substr($keywords, strpos($keywords, &#39;:&#39;) + 1));

         } else { $keywords = ereg_replace(&#39; +&#39;, &#39;|&#39;, $keywords); }
         $column_list = explode(&#39; &#39;, $column);
         $sql = Array();
         for ($i = 0; $i < count($column_list); $i++) { $sql[] = &#39;&#39; . $column_list[$i] . &#39; REGEXP "&#39; . $keywords . &#39;"&#39;; }

      }
      $results = mysql_fetch_results(mysql_query(&#39;SELECT &#39; . $options[&#39;columns&#39;] . &#39; FROM &#39; . $table . &#39; WHERE &#39; . $sql_query . &#39; &#39; . $options[&#39;extra_sql&#39;]));
