I'm interested in comments on the following problem.
I have a set of documents. They fall into 3 categories. Call these categories A, B, and C. Each document has an indexed, non-tokenized field called "category" which contains A, B, or C (they are mutually exclusive categories). All of the documents contain a field called "body" which contains a bunch of text. This field is indexed and tokenized. So, I want to do a search which looks something like: (category:A OR category:B) AND body:fred I want all of the category A documents to come before the category B documents. Effectively, I want to have the category A documents first (sorted by relevancy) and then the category B documents after (sorted by relevancy). I thought I could do this by boosting the category portion of the query, but that doesn't seem to work consistently. I was setting the boost on the category A term to 1.0 and the boost on the category B term to 0.0. Any thoughts how to skin this? Scott
