Nordic characters gives strange results

[annaskywalker]

I am using flexsearch together with a GatsbyJS plugin called gatsby-plugin-local-search, where I can pass options for flexsearch into the plugin like this:

engineOptions: { charset: "latin:extra" }

which is the same as this:

var index = new Index({ charset: "latin:extra" });

If i search for example "forhånd", I get a correct result. But I get the same result if I replace the character "å" with either ä, ö, ø or æ.

If I instead search for "forhand" get different results. It's like it doesn't seem to read the nordic characters as it should, but shouldn't that be standard in the "latin" charset?

Am I missing something?

Hi Anna, I run into the same issue. Have you been able to solve it? Regards
