Title: XML Searching

Thanks,   I will have a look, because XPath is prety powerful and certainly something that would improve search functionality. With verity you can't really search for an element in the XML file, as far as I can tell Verity just ignores all tags and only performs searches on the text that remains, cool but not powerful.   Does xindice work by storing the files in the database itself? Or will it work by indexing the actual XML files and search the repository?   -----Original Message----- From: Pat Branley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 18 December 2003 2:28 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: XML Searching I would reckon the verity option sounds like the best way.   You could also check out a native XML database like Xindice http://xml.apache.org/xindice/   you can run XPath Queries against collections of documents. There would be a bit of working with Java objects id imagine to get it working in CF.   Pat       "Taco Fleur" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Is there such a thing as indexing XML documents and searching? Sort of like the Verity of coldfusion. I am aware of XPath but that means opening up every document before searching. I'd like them to be indexed and then query the collection with XPath or similiar. Hope it makes sense? Example; I have 1000 documents that have the elements <author>Who ever</author> <category>What ever</category> Index these 1000 documents, and then search the collection for all docs that are in category "What ever" or by Author "Who ever" PS. I know the DTD is missing from the sample ;-)) Taco Fleur 07 3535 5072 Tell me and I will forget Show me and I will remember Teach me and I will learn --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
