Ok, here we go: First of all, use INDEX.process_query(query_string) to see how Ferret sees your querys after the QueryParser parsed them. You'll see that the results ferret gives perfectly match the queries the parser generated from your query strings - but these are not the results you want. So you'll have do work on the analysis part. Here it seems your problem is that your analyzer is stripping away the wildcards you use, i.e. a = TestAnalyzer.new qp = Ferret::QueryParser.new :analyzer => a qp.parse 'url:"http://ferret.davebalmain.com";' # url:ferret.davebalmain.com qp.parse 'url:"http://ferret*";' # url:ferret -> bad, won't mach A custom URLAnalyzer that strips away the protocol://, but leaves intact wildcards in queries could help here. You also should think about further tokenizing the domain part by splitting at '.' (as a LetterTokenizer would do). So url:ferret would match the ferret.davebalmain.com url even without wildcard. Also keep in mind that you do not have to use Ferret's Query Parser if it doesn't fit your needs - you can always build your own. Jens -- Jens Krämer webit!
