Hi, I'm currently using TextIndexNG-1.09 with my Zope site (2.6.1 release). I've created an Index with the following stteing : - attribute name: title - encoding: iso-8859-15 - stemmer: disabled - casefolding: enabled - index single characters: disabled - default query parser: PyQueryParser - stopwords: None - normalizer: french - compressed lists: disabled - use converters: disabled - similarity search: disabled When I enter a phrase query on this index (using double quotes) with some accentuated characters (like "département"), I raise an exception : UnicodeError: ASCII encoding error: ordinal not in range (128). The same query without quotes doesn't fail. Any idea ?? Thanks, Thierry -- Linux every day, keeps Dr Watson away... http://gpc.sourceforge.net -- http://www.ulthar.net
