Tips for working with Zend_Search_Lucene
in PHP added by goodphptutorials, on 10/3/2010 Zend advanced tutorials framework lucene search
A common misstep for a developer who is implementing Lucene for the first time is to stuff an overabundance of data inside it, reducing performance. For someone who doesn't have a background in natural language processing or information retrieval, some data normalization steps may not come naturally. This post specifically regards Zend_Search_Lucene, but much of my advice can be abstracted across various languages to other Lucene ports, such as Lucene.NET.

Googlifying Search Results
in PHP added by goodphptutorials, on 23/1/2006 content management google results search style
Most people are familiar with doing searches on Google, and how Google formats search results. First, the search criteria text appears in a bold font. Second, the text of the search results ends with an ellipsis (...) to let the user know that there is more information where that came from. These little UI features make it easy for readers to find what they are looking for.
