Hey Jim: I'm not sure if Standard Analyzer would do this for any such character, unless you qualified the pre-pended string and a period so it fits Standard Analyzer's definition for HOST.
However, if you want, you could add a Filter that you use after the Standard Analyzer's Filters are done that pre-pends the XXX= to all of those certain terms, after they are don being analyzed. drago On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 12:54 PM, <oh...@cox.net> wrote: > Hi, > > This is a kind of followup to a thread a couple of weeks ago. > > In my indexer, I want to pre-pend a string to certain terms to make it > easier to search.
