Index not working for entries within

1v4n0 · 10-27-2017, 07:49 AM

I hope this is the right thread. I pretty sure, as per the title, the sigil index creator does not indicize the entries that are within EM tags. It does include the words within tag though, so if I search and replace all instances of with it works.

Can anyone confirm? Is there another way out?

Also, is there a way to make it case insensitive?

Thanks.

Sigil's auto-index generation routines do not pay the least bit of attention to how a word may be formatted. It only gathers the words themselves.

Sorry. I misunderstood the issue being described. Someone has confirmed that words inside em tags get ignored during index generation. We'll look into it.

I think we need to look at XhtmlDoc.cpp and look at how ID_TAGS are defined and possibly add "em" to this list. I have not walke the code as I am away from my dev box, so that is just a wag.

Thanks, Kevin. I've not looked at that code either.

Would you also have to add where you have ?

Both strong and b tags are already part of ID_TAGS. That function that uses ID_TAGS is invoked from the indexer code to get the text of a node but I really need to sit down to understand how it works first before knowing if this is the culprit or not.

Just pushed to master the fix for this. Index terms inside em tags are now properly marked and used during Index generation.

You guys are awesome!

Do you have a best guestimate when the next official release will be posted?

I am hoping in about 2 or 3 weeks once my teaching ends and I have more free time.
