Excluding special characters from search

Hi,


We have found recently that including special characters in search results - in particular commas and inverted commas - will cause Matrix to display 0 results, as it searches for the exact phrase including the inverted commas.



This is going to be problematic for us as people will naturally try to phrase search the way they do in Google, surrounding their phrase by inverted commas.



Is there a way I can tell Matrix to exclude special characters from the search?



Cheers,



Miriam
