FAQ with Search

Hi guys,

I am creating an FAQ for my site and I want people to be able to do a text search for specific FAQs containing that word or phrase and then to display the results of the search.

- What would be the best way of storing the FAQs considering I want to search them and also that I want to be able to have different section for the FAQs.

- Also what is the best way of implementing the search function?

Thank you for any help you can provide guys.

1: In a database. Use a category table to store different 'sections'. Link them up with a foreign key.

2: Depends on your situation. If using MySQL, there's the fulltext capability (google 'mysql fulltext').

Wicked, thank you aedrin, have not really used the advanced functions of Database's but am assuming a category table is relatively easy.

FAQ table:
id
question
answer
category_id

Category table:
id
name

List of all FAQs with their category, sorted by category:
SELECT faq.*, category.name FROM faq, category WHERE faq.category_id = category.id SORTY BY category.id ASC

Brilliant Ty
