Thanks, yes creating a RequestHandler is how Solr is designed to be used.

Seems like it would be good to : migrate to an XML HTTP POST for the query call to SolrServlet and use step one would be SOLR-7, supporting POST queries at all, step 2 would be adding support for the XML parser. : The easiest way would be to add another parameter specifying the : default query syntax. : qformat=lucene // default QueryParser syntax : qformat=xml // Mark's XML query syntax : qformat=surround // Paul's surround query syntax You mean the the standard request handler? Why not add an XmlRequestHandler and an SurroundRequestHandler that each parse their "q" param using the appropraite parser? -Hoss
