Hi!

But when I try to match on 'exi', I get:

mysql> select title from content where match (title,center_content,right_content) against ('exi'); Empty set (0.00 sec)

Try MATCH ... AGAINST (... IN BOOLEAN MODE). If it'll work - it means that the word is present in more than 50% of rows. See the manual about 50% threshold.
