For the actual search I am using bi-gram shingles for phrase boosting. However for autosuggest this is not practical. The issue is that I have multiple fields of data (names, address etc) that should all be relevant for the auto suggest. Furthermore a "phrase" entered can either match on one field or any combination of fields. Phrase in this context means separated by spaces or dash. For this I found the above approach the only feasible solution. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith m...@pooteeweet.org
