Thread: Text search configuration
Hi All,
This is my first post to this mailing list, so apologies if I am sending my message to the incorrect place...
My question: I have configured a very basic text search for our application, but got stuck at the point where I need the search vector to filter out some unwanted text (HTML tags and special characters etc.). I have been through the docs and think I have a basic understanding... it appears that I need to write a parser? Or is there something simpler? I couldn't find an examples, so any advise would be much appreciated before I start.
Thanks,
Peter
