title: I want to select a particular list of words containing certain characters using php
body: <p>I want to select a particular list of words in a paragraph containing certain characters </p>
  
  <p>$query_search_text= "SELECT * FROM para where para_main='%text_words'";</p>
  
  <p>I tried using the % sign, but it does not work.  It works if I give in the full text.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
