Hi Tomasso Thanks for a quick response.
So, if I say: http://localhost:8085/apache-solr-3.3.0/select?indent=on&version=2.2* &defType=dismax*&q=scientific&bq=Field1:[20%20TO%2025]^10&start=0&rows=30 -will it be right? The above query: boosts the documents which suit the given query ("scientific"), which has Field1 values between 20-25, by a factor of 10 : Is that right??
