Hello,
We have implemented solr search in several languages .Intially we used the
"GET" method for querying ,but later moved to "POST" method to accomodate
lengthy queries .
When we moved form GET TO POSt method ,the german characteres could no
longer be searched and I had to use the fucntion utf8_decode in my
application for the search to work for german characters.
Currently I am doing this while quering using the POST method ,we are using
the standard Request Handler
$this->_queryterm=iconv("UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT//IGNORE",
$this->_queryterm);
This makes the query work for german characters and other languages but does
not work for certain charactes in Lithuvanian and spanish.Example:
*Not working
- *Iš
- Estremadūros
- sNaująjį
- MEDŽIAGOTYRA
- MEDŽIAGOS
- taškuose
*Working
- *garbę
- ieškoti
- ispanų
Any ideas /input ?
Regards
Sujatha
