    I have a PHP Mysql server based website hosted at Godaddy.com.
    I want to display related thread/topics when user selects a particular thread.
    Can someone please tell me how do the "related threads" work? Are they based on some SQL feature which queries related field values, or some other design?

    JLEville Thanks for your reply. I am still confused. Suppose I have a title for a thread called "How to program in C++ in 24 hours"

    There are some other titles in the database:
    "Learn programming in C++"
    "Wake up after 24 hours"
    "xyz"
    "123abc c++"


    How do I pick up which of the above is closest match, or how to know the keyword on which I have to use like statement
