MySQL: Having troubles with FULLTEXT

[Thierry]

I have a CHAR column in one of my tables which has the following values: "number space number space" like "1 7 29".

I want to add a FULLTEXT search to this column, but this just doesn't work:

 

SELECT *
FROM factories
WHERE match (compMainAct) against ($HTTP_GET_VARS['catID'])

An index has been created on this column.
