Hi,
Ok, I'm really really trying to get my head around this, but I just can't :/
Here are 2 example records, both using the query "st patricks" to
search on (matches for the keywords are in **stars** like so, to make
a point of what SHOULD be matching);
keywords: animations mini alphabets **st** **patricks** animated 1
clover animations mini alphabets **st** **patricks**
description: animated 1 clover

514.5361 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(keywords:st in 5697), product of:

48.0 = fieldNorm(field=keywords, doc=5697)
0.5 = coord(1/2)
The other one:
desc: a black and white mug of beer with a three leaf clover in it
keywords: saint **patricks** day green irish beer spel132_bw clip
art holidays **st** **patricks** day
handle drink celebrate clip art holidays **st** **patricks** day

Now the thing thats getting me, is the record which has 5 occurencs of
"st patricks" , is so different in terms of the scores it gives!
209.23984
193.61652
(these should be the other way around)
Can anyone try and explain whats going on with this?
BTW, the queries are matched based on a normal "white space" index,
nothing special.
The actual query being used, is as follows:
(keywords:"st" AND keywords:"patricks") OR (description:"st" AND
description:"patricks")
TIA - I'm hoping someone can save my sanity ;)
Cheers
