Hi, Would I be correct in thinking that Nutch, when indexing an html
document, does not weight the different text nodes (h1, h2, anchor etc)
differently - instead it just lumps together all text as one? (this is
the impression I get from looking at
org.apache.nutch.parse.html.HtmlParser)

Yes, AFAIK there's no special weighting given to text pulled from the body of the HTML.

I believe Nutch does give higher weight to the anchor text found for links that point to the page, which is a key factor in generating better search results.
