# TERMALL

The `TERMALL` field specifier (case sensitive) allows you to find documents with a specified field whose value contains conceptual matches of several terms specified by you. A conceptual match exists if the terms you specify match terms in a specified field after they have been stemmed.

NOTE: If the language that you are using does not match the DefaultLanguageType that you have specified in the IDOL Server configuration file, you must add the `LanguageType` parameter to your query action.

## Format

    FieldText=TERMALL{yourTerms}:yourFields

`yourTerms` | Type multiple terms. A document is only returned if one of `yourFields` contains a value that includes terms which conceptually match the specified terms. You can match strings that contain punctuation (but see Note below) or consist of several words. NOTE: Strings in the query should be percent-encoded. This ensures that any commas or curly braces that are part of a string are not interpreted as query syntax. If you are sending HTTP requests using the content-type `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` you should then percent-encode all parameter values, meaning that any commas or curly braces that are part of a string are percent-encoded twice (such that a comma is represented by the sequence `%252c`). For more information, see Percent Encoding in Queries.
`yourFields` | Type one or more fields. A document is only returned if it contains one of these fields, and if a term in this field conceptually matches one of `yourTerms`. Separate multiple fields with colons (`:`). There must be no space before or after a colon.

## Example

    FieldText=TERMALL{shopping,centers}:DRETITLE

A document's `DRETITLE` field value must contain a term that conceptually matches `shopping` or `centers` for this document to be returned. If a document's `DRETITLE` field, for example, has the value town center shop this document is returned.

    FieldText=TERMALL{walk,climb}:DRETITLE:TITLE

A document's `DRETITLE` or `TITLE` field value must contain a term that conceptually matches walking or climbing for this document to be returned. If a document's `DRETITLE` or `TITLE` field, for example, has the value `hill walking` and `rock climbing` this document is returned.
