Dries Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tue, 28 Jun 2005 15:16:10 +0000 : robertgarrigos In some cases, search module doesn't index some words, for instance, when there are only tags between words. In that case they are indexed all together: This is part of a real node text in one of my web pages (in catalan): 1732/1735<br\><b>Instrumentació:</b> this got indexed like this in the search_index table: 17321735instrumentació 169 1 which means I couldn't get a search result over 'instrumentació' I fixed that by adding a white space into the code of search.moulde file: original file (lines 253-254):       // Strip heaps of stuff out of it.       $wordlist = preg_replace("'<[\/\!]*?[^<>]*?>'si", '', $wordlist); fixed file (lines 253-254):       // Strip heaps of stuff out of it.       $wordlist = preg_replace("'<[\/\!]*?[^<>]*?>'si", ' ', $wordlist); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wed, 29 Jun 2005 21:12:59 +0000 : benshell Have you tried this on 4.6.x? I read this issue because I'm also having search indexing problems, but this particular problem looks like it has been fixed on 4.6.1. On line 344 on the search.module, I'm reading this:   // Strip off all ignored tags to speed up processing, but insert space before/after   // them to keep word boundaries.   $text = str_replace(array('<', '>'), array(' <', '> '), $text);   $text = strip_tags($text, '<'. implode('><', array_keys($tags)) .'>'); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 30 Jun 2005 06:02:29 +0000 : robertgarrigos No, I haven't. The web page I was having this problem is on a shared server running php 4, thus no way to get drupal 4.6 on it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mon, 22 Aug 2005 00:08:03 +0000 : robertgarrigos This is not yet fixed with 4.5.5. Apparently there is no problem with 4.6.x versions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mon, 22 Aug 2005 01:29:35 +0000 : robertgarrigos Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/search.module_0.patch (607 bytes) I enclose a patch for this. Please, forgive me if this is not the right way of doing. It's the first time I'm using cvs with my macosx. Also the first time I'm using diff to get a patch file, so take it as a simple "hello world" patch file, which should work and fix the problem anyway.
