The markup in the surrogate files in the database turned out to be,
Edward II
Changing to Edward II made it work.
Henry VIII was the same.
The query was, essentially,
let $term := "Henry VIII"
return ft:search("wobo", $term)/ancestor-or-self::p

Hi Liam, Did you find out why II et al. was ignored? Feel free to provide me with a little test case. Cheers, Christian On Tue, Sep 29, 2020 at 3:55 AM Liam R. E.

Hi Liam, Maybe you could translate those tag contents into the corresponding unicode symbols. At least I would hope that text searching algorithms deal with that kind of expansion already, that they match vii with Ⅶ and ⅶ.

Actually it turns out (1) Henry VIII doesn't occur :) although the others do... and (2) in each case the roman numerals are surrounded by markup, III or whatever. So maybe it's behaving as expected! I'll remove the sc markup and see. Sorry ofr the noise.

[basex-talk] king Henry VIII dalenda est
At
https://words.fromoldbooks.org/Search/
a search for henry shows lots of matches, and sodoes a search for henry
i, but henry ii and henry viis missing and so is henry viii.
I can search for viii and find Henry VIII and also Charles VIII, but i
also can't search for Charles VIII.
I can search for the king’s feet, and for Henry V, but not Charles II.
It looks like words ending in ii are invisible.
I'm using ft:search("wobo", $term)/ancestor-or-self::p
Might this be related to stemming? i have that turned off
This is used to create the db (from the Perl API)
# create query instance
t("drop db wobo");
t("create db wobo");
t("open wobo");
$session->send("set chop false");
$session->send("set ftindex true");
$session->send("set updindex true");
$session->send("set autooptimize true");
txf("/home/liam/w/Search/wobo.xml");
t("create index attribute");
t("create index text");
t("create index fulltext");
t("optimize");
t("close");
t("quit");
where t() just does a $session->execute() on its argument after
printing a trace line, and txf does a delete followed by an add.
Probably i can make a test case available if needed.
Liam
