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);

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))
.'>');

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.

This is not yet fixed with 4.5.5. Apparently there is no problem with
4.6.x versions.

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.
