disMax and field name

Hi all,

Just want to confirm that when dismax request handler is used,
fields in "q" is not supported? I'm asking because this query
gives one result:
http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=id%3A2023706&version=2.2&start=0&rows=10&indent=on
while this gives 0, the only difference being the qt argument in the
URL.
http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=id%3A2023706&version=2.2&start=0&rows=10&indent=on&qt=dismax

Thanks
Jack

q is supported by both request handlers, but dismax does not support  
the same query syntax.  Check the Solr wiki for details on the syntax  
for each request handler.   Specifically in your example, field  
selection is not available (in that way) with dismax - field  
searching is done differently with dismax, the query is spread across  
the specified fields in the configuration or parameters.
