Creating an exception for short words in a FULLTEXT search

Hi,

I'm building a PHP site hosted on a commerical server (i.e. no access
to MySQL system variables, only PHPMyAdmin).


My client wants a FULLTEXT search on the site, but the most likely
term people will be searching for is only two letters long.


Is there a way of creating an exception (giving words of four or fewer
letters are ignored) without access to the MySQL system variables?


Any help much appreciated.


Thanks,


OP
