I am building an app that is much like a dictionary -- 

I need to basically be able to click the "a" and ts search for all words beginning with "a" and then gives me the results -- any ideas on how to get this going?

thx

Hi Seth

This is possible I guess - in that Sphinx supports wildcards, and so you could search for a*, ab*, abj* and so on - but I'm not convinced Sphinx is the best tool for a dictionary. Still, perhaps there's some way it fits - feel free to ask more questions :)

Cheers
