Hi,

I am new to ES... I wants to highlight only matched text withing searched query.

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/inde/type/\_search](http://localhost:9200/inde/type/_search)' -d '

{  
"highlight" : {  
"fields" : {  
"number" : {}  
}  
},  
"query" : {  
"field" : {  
"number" : {"query":"_A06_"}  
}  
}

}'

I wants a result should be like this eg. P09_A06_123.

Can you please help me on this?
