I am having an issue with a ht://dig install. For some reason, it only
picks up one word out of a search. For example, searching for
"computers rock" will only search on "computers".
How are you coming to the conclusion that only the first word is being picked up? The query terms listed at the top of the result page? Analysis of the actual results returned? Something else?

There are different search methods (i.e. all, any, boolean). An 'any' search could easily return pages that contain one matching term, but not another. If you are just looking at the excerpts on the return page, it also wouldn't be surprising to see one word in the excerpt, but not the other. This doesn't mean that only one term was searched for; there is no guarantee that both terms occurred near each other. Or are you trying to search for phrases? Phrase searches are not supported by 3.1.x versions of ht://Dig; you would need to move to a 3.2 beta if you require this functionality.

	Are there any configuration options which may cause this?
If one of the terms was shorter than the minimum length, a number, or included in the bad_word file, it could be dropped depending on your configuration settings. This doesn't seem likely for the example you list above.
