Re: FTS wildcard and custom ispell dictionary problem

Great thanks. This function idea works perfectly!

create function xtsquery (tsquery,tsquery) returns tsquery as $$
select $1 || $2 $$ language sql;
SELECT fts_title, ts_headline(fts_title, query) from object_fts ot,
xtsquery(to_tsquery('dc2', 'kriev:*'), to_tsquery('english',
'kriev:*')) query where fts_tsv @@ query;
