Highlight with unexpected results
Author: doppelrittbergerCreated Sep 9, 2025Updated Sep 11, 2025
Hey
I use your cool library for fulltext search and tried using the highlight feature. Seems working mostly fine but I found some examples which I cannot explain.
I created a test here: flexsearch.html
If you run this you will see it searches for start of german word "urlaub" (vacation) and the first highlight is perfect:
Be<b class='xyz'>urlau</b>bung.
The second highlight instead appears to be wrong:
auf-<b class='xyz'>beurl</b>aubung
I would expect the second highlight like this:
auf-be<b class='xyz'>urlau</b>bung
Is there any chance you could give me a hint about what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
