: Using a phrase query with a high slop value should handle this, as the : closer the terms are, the better the score for that match. Specificly: with dismax this behavior is controlled with the "ps" and "qs" params. A query for.... q="tomcat+servlet"&qs=5&qf=foo ...will match docs that contain "tomcat is a servlet container" in the field foo, but it will not match "tomcat offers the last specification implementaion of the servlet" at all. Queries like these... q="tomcat+servlet"&qs=999&qf=foo q=tomcat+servlet&qf=foo&pf=foo&ps=5 ...will match both docs, but will give the doc with the words closer together a higher score becuase of it. (other factors will affect the score however) -Hoss
