Is there any direct equivalent of the FULLTEXT index provided by mySQL ?

If not, has anyone implemented similiar functionality with PostgreSQL ?

See /contrib/fulltextindex.  We do have it.

Hi Glen,

In addition to this, Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote a guide for
implementing Full Text Indexing in PostgreSQL:

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/techdocs/fulltextindexing.php

Hope this is what you're looking for.

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
