Summary: Search results problems

Initial Comment:
The search tools (Search in standard Bible/open
works/current bible) function in an unusual way to
display search results:
Searching for X (e.g. 'eat') in WEB gives the following
results:
- 1hit: it gives the references of the verse, which
contains X and shows in addition 2 verses before and 2
verses afterward
- if X is contained in more than one verse (within the
range of 5 verses), only one middle verse is given as
reference and some verses around are displayed, those
hits (shown by the sourounding verses) are counted as
one hit and show up only once.e.g.
-- 4 hits in Deut 14:9-12, the reference given is Deut
14:11 and displayed is14:9-13. (hits: the first 4 verses),
-- 3 hints in John 4:31-33, the reference given is John
4:31, displayed is John 4:29-33 (hits: last 3 verses),
- in both cases: not only the search for word X (e.g.
eat) is highlighted in the 5 verses displayed, but also
words containing the search word (e.g. Act 10:11-15:
great and eaten)
Testing out, what happens, when searching for words,
which appear more frequent than in five consecutive
verses (e.g. 'the' in Matthew) the Search is not working.

-> Allow the main search tools to
- highlightened only the words searched for
- search for frequent words in consucutive verses

This is not a bug! The search engine we use currently 
removes a bunch of english stop words such as "the" 
or "and" that would produce a lot of hits. Maybe we should 
change this, however. Not sure.

Checking it again shows:

The problem with not showing up if it occurse a sequence of
more than 5 verses works OK now:

e.g. WEB/Matthew/5: Blessed occurs 9 times in a row and is
displayed correctly.

Then I tried to search in WEB for 
-'the' only in Matthew: no result
-'the' only in Tite: no result
-'they' only in Tite: no result
-'then' only in Tite: no result
-'therefore' only in Mattew: OK

Then I used: Settings / Bookshelf Manager / Manage Search
indices / selected the WEB index, deleted it and created it,
this does not make any change.

-> Check this problem out.

It seems to work for me. In pilgrim, searching for "slough", I get hits in 

/CONTENTS
/PART I/THE FIRST STAGE
/PART I/THE SECOND STAGE
/PART I/THE FIFTH STAGE
/PART II/THE FIRST STAGE
/PART II/THE SIXTH STAGE
/PART II/THE EIGHTH STAGE

And I can also find all other words you listed.

Please try to delete your indices (using the bookshelf manager) and re-creating them (just execute a search).

Great. About the Tracker-markup: Is it right to mark it as:
- Status: Closed
- Group: In Progress?

Wolfgang, I believe this is (at least partly) fixed in CVS.
We will try to release another beta soon so that you can
test it again, ok?

I'm sorry for my confusion.  But if it is just the
highlighting that is not working, I believe this is fixed in
cvs.  I made several changes to cvs to enhance the
highlighting according to clucene rules.  

There are still some problems with it. Such as searching for
"kin*m", the regex parser does not pick this up properly (or
most likely I did not set-it-up correctly).  But the problem
stated should be fixed.  Searching for "eat" will not
highlight 'eat' within words like great and eaten.
