A better idea I found was to have a threshold length of a string, and index common words based on this (ie: index everything in a 5 word string, index only rare words in a 10000 word string) - this helps by supplying a lot more context for the short (and therefore harder to find) strings.
That's a pretty good idea, I'll think about that.
Good text matching is very very hard :( people are never satifsfied unless you find EXACTLY what they want on the first go :(
I'm glad you said that, maybe I'll get a raise! -Michel
