Again - what problems did you face when attempting this with the eDismax parser? Are you saying you are unhappy with the way eDisMax interprets -foo as NOT foo? A dash on its own - is treated like a dash.
Your JavaScript code would anyway need to handle URL encoding properly so that a query input for +foo is sent to Solr as q=%2Bfoo, since the plus otherwise would be a space :) So simply urlencode the whole user input when constructing your URL. -- Jan Høydahl, search solution architect Cominvent AS - www.cominvent.com Solr Training - www.solrtraining.com 28. feb. 2013 kl. 15:46 skrev eShard <zim...@yahoo.com>: > Good question, > if the user types in special characters like the dash - > How will I know to treat it like a dash or the NOT operator?
