As others have mentioned, this isn't really true full-text search support, but instead an old page with an example of how you can get that kind of functionality. Full-text search should be coming, but it's still a ways off... The most recent word from a 10gen employee is that it "Seems likely to be in 2.2." You can keep up with the status of true full-text search here: http://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-380 http://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-380
