I'm kind of new at this whole XML/XSP/XSL thing, so if this has a simple
solution,
please bear with me.
Here's the situation: I have a search engine that passes out search results
as XML
to anything that can make a HTTP request to it. When it returns the results,
it looks
something like this:
<searchresults>
<result>
<name>Result 1</name>
<description>This is result 1</description>
<href>http://here.com/index.html</href>
<score>2.3</score>
</result>
<result>
<name>Result 2</name>
<description>This is another result</description>
<href>http://there.com/index.html</href>
<score>1.2</score>
</result>
etc.
</searchresults>
The <result> elements can be repeated infinitely depending on how many
search
results the engine finds that match search query. <score> is the search
result's
ranking against the search query; the rest of the elements in <result> are
self-explanatory.
The search engine returns ALL matches at once in one big XML file. There
could be a dozen search results, 100, or 1.
How would one go about limiting those results in Cocoon? Say I get 100
results,
but I only want to display the top 10 results by score. I'm assuming XSP
is the answer, but I've been going nuts trying to get this stuff to work.
I have O'Reilly's "Java and XML" on back-order, so hopefully that can clear
up my confusion, but until then, anybody got any ideas or some direction
for me?
Thanks for any help.
