search for: spanqueri

I''m trying to use Ferret to do fuzzy searches. If I use fuzzy search for just one word, it works fine: index.search(''name:gogle~0.4'') However, if I try to use a phrase, it doesn''t work: index.search(''name:"gogle search engine"~0.4'') On the other hand, I could do: index.search(''name:gogle~0.4 AND

I''m wondering if ferret has any built-in search/replace mechanism that I might be able to use to highlight the query data in each search result. The reason I think this would be a good idea is that I could end up having to practically duplicate the ferret query parser just to interpret the query so that I can figure out how to highlight the keywords in the search results. Just in case

Lucene has a syntax "foo bar"~10 for finding foo within 10 words of bar. Does ferret support this feature? (the ~ is used for fuzzy queries) Does rdig? This could be a deal breaker for me ''cos I really need proximity searches -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
