A few questions about searching specific fields...
1) In lib-parser.xqy I see the following variable definition:
define variable $SEARCH-FIELD-MAP as element(lp:search-field-map) {
<lp:search-field-map>
<lp:mapping code="title" qname="title"/>
<lp:mapping code="heading" qname="h1 h2 h3 h4 h5"/>
<lp:mapping code="weighted" field="weighted"/>
</lp:search-field-map>
}
However, in some lib-search-custom.xqy examples (and stated in the
lib-search documentation), I've also seen the same structure in the
/config/search element of the $CONFIG variable. I've also seen comments
on this mailing list saying the field search mappings can be specified
in a search-criteria element. Where is the search-field-map element
"supposed" to go? Why is there one sitting in lib-parser.xqy rather
than lib-parser-custom.xqy? Should the mappings in lib-parser.xqy be
removed, since we're not using them?
2) Can someone formally define the attributes code, qname, and field in
the mapping elements? Or point me to where I can find these definitions
in the docs (I've looked and can't find a (complete) answer)?
3) I have an html search form with a <select> drop-down containing
fields a user might wish to search in, for example Journal Title, or
Author. Should this selection will appear in the query string as
field=author:Eric?
4) Does it make "lib-search sense" to have multiple field key/value
pairs in the query string, eg. field=author:Eric&field=title:xquery, and
will they be treated as an AND or an OR?
That's all for now, any answers will be appreciated.
Much thanks,
Eric
