Actually if you need to construct complex multi-field boolean queries via a web-based form, my recommendation is to use client-side Javascript. I posted one such script a while back (for the life of me I don't know why it slipped my mind about it). The difficulty, IMHO, is not getting QueryParser to construct the query, but making query construction by the end-user simple enough and idiot-proof...:) Regards, Kelvin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
