Hello, Using the Search API, I'm performing searches within a single document. The idea is to display (in a web app) a snippet for every search result within a given document. The documents are digital books with this structure:
<doc xmlns="http://digital.library.ptsem.edu/ia";> <metadata> <!-- title, author name, etc. --> </metadata> <text type="ocr"> <page> <!-- content of page --> </page> <page> <!-- content of page --> </page> <!-- more pages --> </text> </doc> I'm using <searchable-expression> like so <options xmlns="http://marklogic.com/appservices/search";> <additional-query>{cts:document-query($uri)}</additional-query> <searchable-expression xmlns:ia="http://digital.library.ptsem.edu/ia";>/ia:doc/ia:text/ia:page</searchable-expression> </options> to get search results at the page level -- that is, results in which @path of each result indicates the page where the searched-for-term occurs: <search:response total="1" start="1" page-length="10" xmlns:search="http://marklogic.com/appservices/search";> <search:result index="1" uri="/ia-xml/h/hi/his/historyofinterpr00farr.xml" path="fn:doc("/ia-xml/h/hi/his/historyofinterpr00farr.xml")/*:doc/*:text/*:page[76]" score="228096" confidence="0.607176" fitness="0.782594"> <search:snippet> <search:match path="fn:doc("/ia-xml/h/hi/his/historyofinterpr00farr.xml")/*:doc/*:text/*:page[76]"> ...data of the Written Law. The gigantic edifice of the Talmud really rests on the <search:highlight>hermeneutic</search:highlight> rules of Hillel as upon its most solid base. These rules ... </search:match> </search:snippet> </search:result> <!-- results 2 - 10 here --> </search:response> What I find odd is the value of @total. There are at least 10 search results total, because @page-length = 10 and there are 10 <search:result> elements, but @total = 1 -- so it's clear that @total is indicating the total number of *documents containing results*, not the total number of *results*. I was expecting the latter. Is this a bug or a feature?
