[Solr Wiki] Update of "DisMaxRequestHandler" by HossMan

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Solr Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by HossMan:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DisMaxRequestHandler

The comment on the change is:
not great, but better

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Below you will find the initial announcement about the !DisMaxRequestHandler.  
+ The DisMaxRequestHandler is designed to process simple user entered phrases (without heavy syntax) and search for the individual words across several fields.
  
- This email, the [http://incubator.apache.org/solr/docs/api/org/apache/solr/request/DisMaxRequestHandler.html javadocs], and the [http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/solr/trunk/example/solr/conf/solrconfig.xml?view=co example configuration] are the documentation currently available about it's use.
+ /!\ :TODO: /!\ write some more general documentation akin to StandardRequestHandler
+ 
+ == Parameters ==
+ 
+ In addition to the CommonQueryParameters, HighlightingParameters, and SimpleFacetParameters the !DisMax Request Handler supports several other options which can be found in the [http://incubator.apache.org/solr/docs/api/org/apache/solr/request/DisMaxRequestHandler.html DisMaxRequestHandler javadocs].
+ 
+ These parameters may be assigned default values in solrconfig.xml which are overridden by query-time settings as you can see in the [http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/solr/trunk/example/solr/conf/solrconfig.xml?view=co example configuration].
  
  Please note that if you are trying to sort results using Solr's extended syntax to the Lucene query language with a DisMaxRequestHandler that you will instead need to pass in a 'sort' parameter as part of your request:
  
  {{{
- 
- http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=shoes&sort=created+desc
+   http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=shoes&sort=created+desc
- 
  }}}
  
- /!\ :TODO: /!\ write some more general documentation akin to StandardRequestHandler
+ == Overview ==
+ 
+ Below you will find the initial email announcement about the !DisMax Request Handler which has several examples of how it can be used.
