I know how to do a regular php mysql search and display the results. However, because of the nature of what I\'m trying to accomplish I need to be able to sort by relevancy.
I Don't What exactly you want but the following code definitely work for you.
SELECT ("some text here" or `column_name`) RLIKE "Apple|Iphone|Application" AS Result ORDER BY Result DESC;
Separate all words with Bar(|) but results will be 1 or 0 founded or not resp. If you want to get founded rows see below.
SELECT * FROM "table_name" WHERE `column_name` RLIKE "Apple|Iphone|Application";
