Thanks you both. In order to get it (e.g. filter query --> http://...&fq:genres=ACTION & ADVENTURE) work in browser, i have to explicitly put url encode for special character, regardless what following solution i use:
1. Using double quote on filter query field 2. Using escape on special character. In my case, it is white space and "&" within the "ACTION & ADVENTURE" 3. Using raw query Qparser It looks like someone already asked the question before and get answered: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/fq-field-with-facets-td2559948.html Thanks for your help. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/How-to-handle-special-character-in-filter-query-tp2579978p2598130.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
