Full text search in view panel searching for content with quotes

Category: Server Side JavaScript
Platform: All
Release: 8.5.3
Role: Developer

Replies: 2

I want to search for an item value containing quotes. For example: Test with "quotes".

What query do I have to use in the search property of the view data source of the view panel to find the document containing the item value.

The following does not work:

'FIELD fieldXY = Test with "quotes"*';
'FIELD fieldXY = Test with \"quotes\"*';

Thanks

Something like this should work (not tested)

"FIELD Subject = \"" + q + "\" OR FIELD CATEGORY = \"" + cat + "\""

"FIELD Subject Contains \"" + q + "\""

Thanks for your suggestion, but in my tests this doesn't seem to work either.

To overcome the problem I replaced the quotes with " AND ". So a query with a search string 'test with "q"' would lead to a query:

FIELD Subject = "test with " AND "q"

(I enclosed the single parts of the search value additionally in quotes)
