I've set up a new OSS to handle search on a forum. The basic setup was rather straight forward but upon tweaking it I've gotten stuck. The issue is that the pages have a custom meta tag like this:
<meta name="searchtype" content="construction_collection" />
I have set up a field in my Schema with the same name and then added it to the returned fields in the query. However that tag in the result xml is always empty:
<result name="response" numFound="173" collapsedDocCount="0" start="0" rows="10" maxScore="2357,006" time="6">
<doc score="2357,006" pos="0" docId="4008">
<field name="searchtype"/>
and I fail to comprehend how to setup the Parser and Crawler in order to connect these. Some threads here insinuate that it should work automatically, but it doesn't. Surely I need to set up something more. What have I missed?

By default, the HTML parser of OpenSearchServer try to extract only the visible information of the Web page.
It is possible to retrieve information stored in meta only if they use a specific syntax. Your meta should be in the form:
<meta name="opensearchserver.field.searchtype" content="contruction_collection" />
You can also populate several fields:
<meta name="opensearchserver.field.searchtype.anotherfield" content="contruction_collection" />
