Currently, When I type 'M' in the search engine I do not get any results inspite of having a 'Math' value in my database. (I am using Match Against function of mysql on my website). So I decided to make a code that first runs a Match Against function and if no output is obtained, it again runs the search but this time using 'LIKE' function of my sql and if still no result is obtained it shows alert 'no values found'. the gist of code is somewhat like this..
mysql(Match against function)
If (mysqli_num_rows > 0)
{output}
elseif (mysqli_num_rows < 1)
{ mysqli (LIKE function)
then show output}
else {show alert'no results'}
Will this code give the result 'Math' when I enter 'M' in the search engine.
The actual code.

$query_run1 = mysqli_query($con, $query1) ;
