What I would think would be more useful (rather than the number of words from the 
query found in the document) is the number of times query words appear in each 
document in total.  It's much more useful to know that wireless or data appeared 
in a document 50 times, rather than that one out of two words in the query wireless 
data appear in the same document.

Perhaps I'm not making sense.

(Sorry, posted to the older thread before by accident.)

What I would think would be more useful (rather than the number of words from the 
query found in the document or even a percentage) is the number of times query words 
appear in each document in total. It's much more useful to know that wireless or 
data appeared in a particular document 50 times, rather than that one out of two 
words in the query wireless data appear in the document. 

Perhaps I'm not making sense.

DR means number of unique words found in document, It is always 1
if you search for the only one word. However most relevant document
is always dislayed first. 

In 3.2 we want to add a possibility to display something like 
percentage.


 While performing a search, I realised that the document
 relevancy $DR is always get 1. This is rather weird, cos' 
 I always thought that the document relevancy value should 
 be derived from the search text. How it be possible that 
 a document which contain more occurences of the search text 
 have the same document relevancy value as documents with lesser occurences?
 
 How should I configure indexer.conf during indexing
 so that the document relevancy can be taken into account
 when a search is issued?
 
 Any help on the matter is much appreciated.

 All of my returned results show the same relevance/rating [1] when using $DR... 
Perhaps I don't understand the meaning of this. I expected results at the top to have 
a higher rating. I have a rough idea of how this is being calc'ed (how many times 
does the word appear in dict.word)...
 
 Suggestions?? Comments??
 
 Thanks

It's covered in the doc/relevancy.txt
