[Xapian-discuss] Multiple filters with PHP? How to?

[athlon athlonf]

>>  author = "the author" 

>This line isn't not valid PHP...

Yes, i know. I was actually asking for the xapian equivalent for such a where clause if it were SQL.
(select * from documents where author="the author")
->
$qarray[] = new XapianQuery('Athe author');


>> $qarray[] = new XapianQuery('Athe author');
>> Won't give anything

>That creates a query for the *single term* 'Athe author'.

Thanks, that is indeed easier. 
I have a pretty hard time to use the more advanced of xapian due to the lack of examples.
I'll write an article about the setup once I've figured more things out.
