The term "function" is different from the term "function()", so a literal search for one won't find the other. Your Analyzer could emit two tokens for the input "function()": "function" and "function()", at the same position (increment 0) if that's what you want.
b) I understand about QueryParser.escape at searching time; at indexing time though, do I still need to escape the indexed values, e.g. keyword values, and store them in the escaped fashion, e.g. function\() -- or is function() ok?
Don't escape them at index time, only at search time. Good luck! --MDC --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
