Mysql how is ISNUMERIC() available?

Question

In MSSQL i am using query like below, and it will make different queries depending what i have in $search: text or numbers.

$query="
                IF (isnumeric('$search')=0)
                SELECT *
                FROM giper
                WHERE `name` LIKE '%$search%'
                ORDER BY `art`, `name`
                LIMIT 20

                ELSE
                SELECT *
                FROM giper
                WHERE `art` LIKE '$search%'
                ORDER BY `art`, `name`
                LIMIT 20";

How i can do the same in MySQL?

Thank you.

maybe this can help you

            SELECT *
            FROM giper
            WHERE `name` LIKE '%$search%' OR `art` LIKE '$search%'
            ORDER BY `art`, `name`
            LIMIT 20

or

   SELECT *
          FROM giper
          WHERE if ('$search'=0 ,`name` LIKE '%$search%' , `art` LIKE '$search%')
          ORDER BY `art`, `name`
          LIMIT 20
