It's not true that highlighting means you have to return the field
from the query too. You can specify fl independently of hl.fl

Now, this also means that the field is returned from the query. For
large
text fields to be highlighted only, this means the entire text is
returned
for each result.
There is a pending feature to address this, that allows you to tell
Solr
to NOT return a specific field (to avoid unecessary transfer of
large text
fields in this scenario).

Hi
I am using dismax request handler, I wanted to highlight the search
field,
So added
<str name="hl">true</str>
I was expecting like if I search for keyword "Akon" resultant docs
wherever the Akon is available is bold.
But I am not seeing them getting bold, could some one tell me the
real
path where I should tune
If I pass explicitly the hl=true does not work
I have added the request handler
<requestHandler name="dismax" class="solr.SearchHandler" >
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="defType">dismax</str>
<str name="echoParams">explicit</str>
<float name="tie">0.01</float>
<str name="qf">
name^20.0 coming^5 playing^4 keywords^0.1
</str>
<str name="bf">
rord(isclassic)^0.5 ord(listeners)^0.3
</str>
<str name="*,score">
name, coming, playing, keywords, score
</str>
<str name="mm">
2<-1 5<-2 6<90%
</str>
<int name="ps">100</int>
<str name="q.alt">*:*</str>
<!-- example highlighter config, enable per-query with hl=true
-->
<str name="hl">true</str>
<!-- <str name="hl.simple.pre"><b></str>
<str name="hl.simple.post"></b></str> -->
<!-- for this field, we want no fragmenting, just highlighting
-->
<str name="f.name.hl.fragsize">0</str>
<!-- instructs Solr to return the field itself if no query terms
are found -->
<!-- <str name="f.name.hl.alternateField">name</str> -->
<str name="f.text.hl.fragmenter">regex</str> <!-- defined below
-->
</lst>
</requestHandler>
