Hi,
You will have to change your input data and replace the "<" with "&lt;". This is one of the standard 5 XML entity references. Really you need to make sure that you have no double quotes, single quotes, less than , greater than or ampersands in your data and if you do replace then with the appropriate entity reference:

& -> &amp;

" -> "
' -> '
< -> &lt;
> -> &gt;

Regards

Pete

Hi Gurus,

We are working with Intermedia Text 8.1.6. We created a intermedia index on a search field. We also created 2 sections in this field.

Table name : S01
Filed name : S01_search
Sections name : SY,MAN

Here is an example of data in this field: <SY>Cyane</SY><MAN>Phibro Energy *</MAN> This example works fine.

But we have a problem when there is a "<" character in the data.

Intermedia thinks it's a new tag and tries to find a section but it cannot.
Exemple:
<SY>Cyane < 10 </SY><MAN>Phibro Energy *</MAN>

Question :
1- Should we do something with the "<" in our data ?

TIA
Luc
