FULLTEXT Search

Question

I paid someone to write the following code for me, which creates a search page where the user can select search results to upload into a table. I want to modify the search part of the page so that it becomes a FULLTEXT search (I've already properly indexed the search table), but since the code is different from the code that Dreamweaver usually generates, I don't know how to do it. Any thoughts?

Replace this:
$SelectQuery = "SELECT * FROM agents_DB WHERE email LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%'
OR firstname LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%' OR lastname LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%'
OR networksize LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%' OR keywords LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%'
OR city LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%' OR zip LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%'
OR state LIKE '%".$_POST[keyword]."%'";
with this:
$SelectQuery = "SELECT * FROM agents_DB
WHERE MATCH (email, firstname, lastname, networksize, keywords, city, zip, state)
AGAINST ('*" . $_POST['keyword'] . "*' IN BOOLEAN MODE)";
