thanks for the explanation. the results for the autocompletion are pretty good now, but we still have a small problem.
When there are hits in the "edgytext2" fields, results which only have hits in the "edgytext" field should not be returned at all. Example: Query: "Martin Sco" Current Results (in that order): - "Martin Scorsese" - "Martin Lawrence" - "Joseph Martin" However, in an autocompletion context, only "Martin Scorsese" makes sense, the 2 others are logically not correct. I'm not sure if this can be solved on the solr side, or if we should implement the logic in the application. thanks! -robert On Nov 12, 2010, at 12:13 AM, Jonathan Rochkind wrote: > Without the parens, the "edgytext:" only applied to "Mr", the default field > still applied to "Scorcese". > > The double quotes are neccesary in the second case (rather than parens), > because on a non-tokenized field because the standard query parser will > "pre-tokenize" on whitespace before sending individual white-space seperated > words to match the index.
