MyISAM was the default storage engine for MySQL 5.1 and prior versions. From MySQL 5.5 InnoDB has become the default storage engine.
There are many different types of storage engine for MySQL, aswell as many custom versions. The most common ones used are MyISAM and InnoDB.MyISAMFalconMergeMemory (heap)FederatedArchiveCSVBlackholeClusterBerkeley DBEXAMPLEMariaInnoDBsolidDBNitroEDBInfobright (formerly Brighthouse)KickfireXtraDBIBM DB2One thing about MySQL is that it allows you to use a mixture of these engines within the same database, so depending on the table you can use the engine type that suits it best for your needs.
The table you wish to use must be using the myISAM storage engine. You will need to create a fulltext index on the column you wish to search. To then search that table see the example on this page: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-natural-language.html
