Description:
In page http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/fulltext-search.html , there is a sentence like "using MATCH() ... AGAINST syntax". What the ellipsis means in this sentence? Is this a typo? If ellipsis is in parentheses after "MATCH", I would think ellipsis here means multiple parameters; but if it appears like "using MATCH() ... AGAINST syntax", I would be confused, since nothing should appear after ")" and before "AGAINST".

Thanks. 

How to repeat:
Open page http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/fulltext-search.html , and search "using MATCH() ... AGAINST syntax".

Suggested fix:
Put ellipsis in parentheses.

"An ellipsis (...) indicates the omission of a section of a statement, typically to provide a shorter version of more complex syntax. For example, SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE is shorthand for the form of SELECT statement that has an INTO OUTFILE clause following other parts of the statement. ......."

Thanks.
