I am using a CONTEXT text index with 10g express (to develop with on my laptop). I crated a custom search that joins together columns from many tables using PL/SQL.

Is there any way to mark some words as relatively more important? For example, a match on a title should rank higher than a match on some other words in the other text.

The only way I can think of to do this is to make two separate indexes, one for the titles, one for the other text, then somehow add the two values coming from both CONTAINS clauses together to get the relative match.

Any other ideas?
