Search should work irrespective of Special characters.
Search should work irrespective of Special characters.
When we search with Special characters like "Pàtrick" we should also get result of "Patrick" and vice versa.
That is when "à" is given in the auto-complete field the populated values should contain both "à" values and "a" values.
please suggest a suitable approach for this.
Thanks

Are you taking about search or specifically the autocomplete control?
I believe the lucene search supports what you are requesting. @NickLoving_GCS, are you able to confirm this point?
With that said, I can see how that would not help in your case, as the autocomplete matching would use a different algorithm I would imagine. I think it uses a much more simple string comparison in relation to ASCII maybe? Need an UI SME who is familiar with the underneath the hood logic for this control.

Hi Jithendra,
It seems "à" is a french character. what is the default locale of your operator Id ? Can you please try adding "fr_CA" and try to search this character. Hopefully system would search that character.
