hi Chris and Hoss:
Thanks for the feedback. This is useful to hear. This seems like a bug to
me but not a very important one.
I'm new to Solr and seems like you have a great community here.

Maybe you don't use special characters such as '?', '&', ... in your
query, but other guys do.
If someone want to search for '? & the mysterians', it's impossible if
you don't encode it.
As the 'admin' interface must be used by anyone, the query has to be
url-encoded.

The '&' and '%26' are not equivalent as well as the '=' and '%3D'.
I know I could easily just type the queries correctly in the URL, but I'm
giving a training where I'd like to show how the queries generated in
Thanks again for the follow-up.
You are correct that '%3A' and ':' are equivalent. However if I type
anything else, for example if I want to change the query parser to Lucene,
the responseHeader returns an empty set.
If I type in the /admin screen:
t_FIELD_NAME:TEST&defType=lucene
I get:

I'm not sure to understand your problem.
The 2 urls :
.../select/?q=t_FIELD_NAME%3ATEST
and .../select/?q=t_FIELD_NAME:TEST
are strictly the same.
Look in the 'responseHeader', you'll see that query received is
t_FIELD_NAME:TEST for both urls.

hi Franck;
Thank you for your response. I'm not sure you understand my issue however.
I have dismax on by default so am able to use query fields.
My problem is not in the queries themselves, but when they are input from
the '/admin' screen they are url-encoded.
If I take your suggestion and type
Hi,
for your example query 'TEST&qf=t_FIELD_NAME ',
you can simply query :
t_FIELD_NAME:TEST
If you really want to use the 'qf' parameter, it is only available for
dismax queries ( http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DisMaxQParserPlugin ). Your
query becomes:
{!dismax qf=t_FIELD_NAME}TEST
