Hi

I've been using postgresql V8.3 to build a search engine for our intranet
site.
This has worked very well so far proving to be quick and relevant.

However I've been wondering if postgresql's full text search supports
literal matches. IE, matching an exact phrase in a document.
I cannot find anything pertaining to literal matches in the manual.

Does anyone know whether literal matches are support or any work around
method for this.

Obviously I could fall back onto a 'like' condition but would prefer not
to.

Chris Ellis
