Hi Joshil, I’m not sure I completely understand what you want to do, but here are a couple of ideas:
Each <result> that comes back from search:search represents a document or fragment in your database. So if you have one sample document in your database (and it isn’t fragmented), then search:search(“wine”) will return just one <result> element. Using <max-matches> only controls the number of matching nodes returned as part of the snippet; it won’t change the number of <result> elements that are returned. In order to restrict the search to terms in the <title> element, you need to construct an options node that defines a word constraint on the title element; that will allow you to write a search like: search:search(“title:wine”) and get documents that have “wine” only in the title element. The result element includes a document URI and path, so that you can access the document and use xpath on it to get the value of the <title> tag, which you can then display along with the snippet. There is currently no way to include the value of the <title> element with your snippet (there is an RFE on file for that). I’d like to recommend that you try going through the following tutorial, which gives you a hands-on tour of the Search API, including how to set up constraints and use some of the other basic features. http://developer.marklogic.com/howto/tutorials/2009-07-search-api-walkthrough.xqy I hope this helps!

Total number of the matches found in number of <title> tags. In this example, although the “wine” appears twice in the <title> “Cook1”, it should be counted as 1 and it should return only two search:result nodes. I set <max-matches> to 1 control this. But I need to find out how many such matches exist in entire document. Is there way to find this out without traversing through the entire search:result ? 2. Along with the search:snippet I always want to display the value of the <title> tag inside with search:result along with search:snippet. How can I do this ?
