Amazon like search function

2010-11-21 Thread nicksnels

Hi,

I'm looking for ideas on how to implement an Amazon.com like search
function. If for example you do a search on - optimization algorithm java.
Amazon first returns results that contain all of these keywords, then
followed by a list that contains both the words "optimization algorithm",
then a list with books that contain the words "algorithm java" and finally a
list with books that contain both the words "optimization java". 

At the moment I'm using the solrQueryParser defaultOperator="OR" option, but
this returns to many results. I have tried to switch to the "AND" option but
that option returns to few results. So I would like to present the results
like Amazon does, so the user has some more options to choose from.

Kind regards,

Nick

What is correct use of HTMLStripCharFilter in Solr 3.1

2011-05-12 Thread nicksnels
Hi,

I recently upgraded from Solr 1.3 to Solr 3.1 in order to take advantage of
the HTMLStripCharFilter. But it isn't working as I expected.

I have a text field that may contain HTML tags. I however would like to
store it in Solr without the HTML tags. And retrieve the text field for
display and for highlighting without HTML tags.

I added  to the top of
 in the schema.xml file of the solr
example, both in  and in .

And the text field is simply:



Now, when I do a search. The text field still has all the HTML tags in them
and the highlighting is totally screwed up with em tags around virtually
every word. What am I doing wrong?

Kind regards,

Nick
