Exact search using multiple fields

I have a search page with 4 fields on it and it works fine but the client has an additional request. They want the searches to be an exact match. A search for dog returns "dog" and not "dog breeder". This can be done by placing hidden tags just prior to the field set to "==". If I put the tag on 1 field and search on it works fine. But when I put the hidden tag on all the fields it returns no results because the empty search fields have data in them in the records and the search wants them == to empty. I have tried operators and logical operators and can't seem to fine the right combination.

Any ideas??

Maybe some Javascript could help here. You can manipulate the "hidden" tags, just prior to the fields, to reflect whether the field is empty or not.

All the best.
