We have a search:search() query that searches for <div> elements in a
database fragmented on <div> tags.
We want to sort the <div> tags based on an @order attribute so we passing
the sort-order option:
<sort-order type="xs:string" direction="ascending">
<element ns="" name="div"/>
<attribute ns="" name="order"/>
</sort-order>
But the results returned are not sorted on the order attribute.
When we turn on debugging with the <debug>true</debug> option I see in the
SEARCH-FLWOR the order by phrase:
order by xs:string(($result//div/@order)[1]) ascending
What we actually want is:
order by xs:string($result/@order) ascending
If I run the cts:query from the SEARCH-FLWOR with that modified order by
phrase it returns results sorted exactly as wanted.
Is there a way to coax search:search() to sort specifically on an attribute
of the result?
