I am counting on the possibility with misspelling and even some strange hits. It cannot be absolute failsafe.

This is suppose to serve as a search engine for company quick search.

A visiting user can use two fields for that

Example:
Input fields:
what = "programming"
where = "12345 freezytown"

Output:
1 hit:
SheSaidImaPregy & Co
ASP Professional and posting shark
ColdStreet 123A
12345 Freezytown

"didn't know that guy works in Freezy', Cool !"

But I must try to design this facilty to be as exact as possible.
And in addition I am going to create a form for more advanced searches for users needed exact hits an so on.

Separators can be good to have as you suggest.
