Hi everyone  
I am doing a project in which i am using adobe flex front end rails  
as back end support.  
I am not getting how to perform search on mysql database using rails  
and displaying the result with flex front end. I did google search and  
came across mysql full text search and ferret plugin.  
but i am not getting the exact way to implement.  
My database consists of records about videos somewhat like youtube  
videos which also consists of tags.

any kind of suggestion regarding this will be appreciated.
