Can anybody tell me how i use the select function with LIKE?

I tried:

$result = mysql_db_query("database","select * from table where title='%$search%' or text='%search%'");

Where title is a char (80)
and text is a text

Thanx!

The query should read:

select * from table where title LIKE '%$search%' or text LIKE '%$search%'
