SphinxSearch is a powerful full-text search engine that can be used to search for documents and other data. The phrase_boundary option allows you to specify a boundary for phrases in the search query. This can be used to ensure that only exact phrases are matched, rather than individual words.

Example code

$sphinx->SetMatchMode(SPH_MATCH_PHRASE);
$sphinx->SetPhraseBoundary('.,!? ');
