Need a hand getting started with Search page

I've been trying to follow the tutorial but am finding it hard to adapt to my own site.

I would like to create a search page to return results from a links directory database. What I want is so that visitors can enter a search term, eg. photographer, it will return only those records that are related to photography. I have tried using a Db field called Keywords and set the search wizard to target that but it just displays all records in the Db.

My code is:

php:
<?php
//WA Database Search (Copyright 2005, WebAssist.com)
//Recordset: rsItems;
//Searchpage: search.php;
//Form: frmSearchForm;
$WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere "WHERE 0 <> 0";
if (!
session_id()) session_start();
if (isset(
$_POST["button2"])) {
  
$WADbSearch1 = new FilterDef;
  
$WADbSearch1->initializeQueryBuilder("MYSQL","1");
  
//keyword array declarations
  
$KeyArr1 = array("Keywords");

  
//comparison list additions
  
$WADbSearch1->keywordComparison($KeyArr1,"".$row_rsItems['Keywords']  ."","OR","Includes","%20AND%20","%20OR%20","%22","%22",0);

  
//save the query in a session variable
  
if (== 1) {
    
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_search_results"]=$WADbSearch1->whereClause;
  }
}
else     {
  
$WADbSearch1 = new FilterDef;
  
$WADbSearch1->initializeQueryBuilder("MYSQL","1");
  
//get the filter definition from a session variable
  
if (== 1)     {
    if (isset(
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_search_results"]) && $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_search_results"] != "")     {
      
$WADbSearch1->whereClause $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_search_results"];
    }
    else     {
      
$WADbSearch1->whereClause $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
    }
  }
  else     {
    
$WADbSearch1->whereClause $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
  }
}
$WADbSearch1->whereClause str_replace("\\''""''"$WADbSearch1->whereClause);
$WADbSearch1whereClause '';
?>
