Actually, it doesn't. This does not take care of documents that extend beyond the bounds of the current 30 day window... which are relevant even though both the start and end are not within the range.
For instance: A document with a start_date of 1/1/08 and an end_date of 3/1/08 should still match for a search of the range 2/1/08 to 2/2/08. -Nathan On 3/17/08, Nathan Woodhull <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Nevermind, this is actually easy: > > StartDate: [NOW TO NOW+30DAY] AND EndDate: [NOW TO NOW+30DAY] > > > -Nathan > > > On 3/17/08, Nathan Woodhull <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I'm working on an application where the documents in the solr index > > might only be relevant to users within a date range.
