Two word entries in dictionary

[asgeirtj]

Hey

I made my own dictionary for a fantasy book. However I have a problem with two word entries, it won't work.

For example the name Anomander Rake won't get looked up. However I'm also using a fictionary for the book (http://thefictionary.net/) and it works (Book 5 of Malazan), and I don't any difference of the two dictionaries in the calibre e-book reader.

From your link at thefictionary.net:

Multi-Word Entries & Multiple Matches
For multi-word entries such as names or titles each word is linked back to the definition of the entire phrase. If a word matches on more than one definition each term is listed at the top in order of the length of content, with person entries taking precedence over all others. This technique insures that the terms deemed most important by the community responsible for the content are listed first.

@asgeirtj: You'll have to use inflection tags. Here's an example from the Dune fictionary:

<idx:entry scriptable="yes">
    <idx:orth value="Fleur de Lys">
        <idx:infl>  
            <idx:iform name="" value="Ly"/>  
            <idx:iform name="plural" value="Lys"/>  
            <idx:iform name="plural" value="Lyes"/>  
            <idx:iform name="" value="Fleur"/>  
            <idx:iform name="plural" value="Fleurs"/>  
            <idx:iform name="plural" value="Fleures"/>
        </idx:infl>
    </idx:orth><h2> Fleur de Lys </h2> <b>
    <font size="7">&mdash; </font></b><br>Fleur de Lys was a strategy game much enjoyed by Vorian Atreides.<br><br><b>Appearances</b><br><br>&bull;&nbsp;Dune: The Machine Crusade "<br><br>
</idx:entry>

@asgeirtj: What website was the source of your "better-than-fictionary" character information for Malazan books?
While Shelfari website was "alive" I used to use X-Ray builder app to build custom X-Ray file. Nowdays I have to settle for The Fictionary dictionaries.

I'm reading Malazan book #6

I'm doing a dictionary with the dramatis personae and the glossary, I think the fictionaries can be spoilery and they don't have the glossaries.

Is there any advantage to having own x ray file over own dictionary btw?
