Does anyone know how rank modes and weight work in sphinx - I'm reading the
following from the Sphinx site:

http://www.sphinxsearch.com/docs/manual-0.9.8.html#api-func-setrankingmode

No matter what rank mode I select the @weight attribute returns the same
number. I've also noticed that the amount of words in the document alter the
relevance. I want an easy and universal method for capturing phrase
proximity for an extended search.

I'm using the :extended2 search mode.I've tried all the available rank
modes.

I'm experimenting with attribute-attribute matching with sphinx

These are the options I'm passing to search

:match_mode => :extended2,
          :field_weights => weights,
          :sort_mode => :extended,
          :rank_mode => :bm25,
          :limit => 30,
          :conditions => "user_login != '#{diagnosis.user.login}'"


Thanks,
