Hmm.. many searching interfaces that let you search on multiple fields (like Eudora 4.2) give you only the option to show objects that match any or all criteria. It would certainly solve my problem if we had this choice =).
Maybe ZCatalog should accept a special argument that specifies with a normal boolean search string how to join the results of the different indexes, something like:
title and (summary or body)
....
2. What are the non-standard solutions, then ?
How about using the LDAP qurey syntax: object_property = value object_property < value More advanced operations coule be done like (& (property = value) (other_property < value)) Chris from DC posted some LDAP specs to the list that summed up the syntax pretty well. One thing that could be done is to say that if no property name is specified then it means to search any property. --------------------------------------------------- - Scott Robertson Phone: 714.972.2299 - - CodeIt Computing Fax: 714.972.2399 - - http://codeit.com - ---------------------------------------------------
