July 9, 201015 yr Hi there, The other day I noticed something wierd, searching for this string: "admiral pie" "anchovy pizza" "apple pie" "bass" "cave eel" "cavefish" "chilli potato" "curry" "egg potato" "fish pie" "garden pie" "healing aura scroll" "jug of wine" "lobster" "manta ray" "meat pie" "meat pizza" "monkfish" "mushroom potato" "pineapple pizza" "potato with butter" "potato with cheese" "redberry pie" "rocktail" "salmon" "saradomin brew (1)" "sea turtle" "shark" "stew" "summer pie" "swordfish" "tuna" "tuna potato" "wild pie"doesn't yield any page with the item "rocktail" (yet I did include it in my search) But what's more strange only searching for: "rocktail" "salmon" "saradomin brew (1)" "sea turtle" "shark" "stew" "summer pie" "swordfish" "tuna" "tuna potato" "wild pie"Did show that result.. So I'm thinking that there is a limited number of words? - or is the character number limited, or....?If anybody would give me an idea, I'm happy :) First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
July 9, 201015 yr I have a small knowledge of coding, But when a string is defined there is usually a max number of characters. And i'm guessing that the smaller string has returned related searchs aswell as your desired outcome, while the larger search has returned all it could and not able to return the related searchs. Just a guess anyways...

Just a guess anyways...I thought of that too, but both SQL (which is used to read the database internally) as well as PHP (which is used to parse user input from the website to an SQL string) don't put limits on the size of strings (there strings aren't 0-ended, as string starts with an number identifying the size).. It is more likely that there is some (hidden) limitation in the SQL parser to disallow too many words. Thanks for thinking with me though :) First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
