Hello James,

Verity follows the same rules as the major search engines. So, you are
correct in saying the javascript compression following each other, or
mentioned anywhere on the same page will have the same rank. To combat this,
the only thing you can do is get users to use quotation marks around the
phrase so verity will pick up the exact phrase.

Subject: Verity Ranking

I am implementing a custom verity collection on my site. I am trying to find
out how to inform the verity engine to rank some fields as more important
than others.

The items i'm indexing have a title, author, date, abstract, and keywords.

At this point, I cant figure out how to get verity to rank a hit in the
title above a hit in the abstract. If someone is searching for 

    javascript compression

and there is an article called "javascript compression" and there is a
separate article that has both of those words as keywords, they will have an
equal rank even though the identically named article is obviously a better
match.

Any help would be appreciated.
