Description

Hi there!

In my database the content of property "content" is wrapped withHTML, e.g.

The doc structure is very easy: _id, displayName and content. The search is based on field "content".

The search will not return any result. If I remove all HTML tags the search function will work.

Do you have any ideas how to make my database searchable?

Regards Carsten
