[PHP-DB] Counting Words in TEXT field From: JJ Harrison (webmaster <email protected>)
Date: 07/25/02

I am using mysql.

Is it possible to count the number of words in a text column?

Or is this a job for php(The info will be going into php anyway)?

I can use $word = explode(' ',$row['text']);
then use count($word ).

I just ask because mysql *may* be able to do it.
