    Lucene Search Error with special characters

    I'm not sure if this can be fixed but the phrase “AT&T” does not return any search results.

    & is converted with & on the database and we are unable to search "AT&T".

    Kindly guide.

    Thanks Manish for the reply.

    can you please guide me how we can search "&"?

    On search box, the user will search for "AT&T", how we can search word containing "&"?

    Basically, "&" get converted to "& a m p ;", and the reason we are unable to search "AT&T".

    Manish,

    But this won't search for "AT&T", if we disable character "&", then search criteria will not match the input search string.

    If user input on search input box: "AT&T". where on DB, UMBRACO stores "&" yo "& a m p ;" [ without space ].
