tsearch2 headline() query subselect help
guys,
how'd i make this query work?
select headline(select column_1 from table_1 where
to_tsvector(column_1) @@ to_tsquery('ftp'),'ftp'::tsquery);
ERROR: syntax error at or near "select" at character 17
when i break it, it works fine, like so
# select headline('ftp sftp','ftp'::tsquery);
headline
----------
<b>ftp</b> sftp
(1 row)
# select column_1 from table_1 where to_tsvector(column_1) @@
to_tsquery('ftp');
column_1
----------
ftp sftp
(1 row)
where
# select column_1 from table_1 where column_index=1;
column_1
----------
ftp sftp
(1 row)
and how'd i add rank() to this query?

When passing a subselect as an argument to a function, you need to put
it in parenthesis, like so:
select myfunction((select ... from ...),'');

After taking a closer look, why don't you just write it simply like:
select headline(column_1,'ftp'::tsquery) from table_1 where to_tsvector
(column_1) @@ to_tsquery('ftp');
If you do it as a subquery, the subquery can't return multiple values,
and it looks like you expect it to.
