Hello. I am taking over work on this feature from Fred. The code is currently in a state that reflects Mike Rylanders suggestions on 2014-2-13 but we are experiencing an issue with the localization. Fred went into this on his last post briefly. Things work as expected when language is set to English. Upon switching to French Canadian the search fails. The operators are not translated. For example in English we search for 'book or moon' and get the expected result. In French searching for 'book ou moon' produces no matches but 'book or moon' provides the expected results.

Also logging the locale in metabib.pm shows that it is always en-US regardless of the setting on the web page. I am still trying to grasp this codebase and don't fully understand how the localization system works. I would appreciate any feedback or ideas anyone has on this.

Thanks
