Hi David
Thanks for that, actual I have to admit that I managed to find the file in the
Simile mailing list archive.
I had a play with it this morning and it works a treat.
Unfortunately using the hierarchical facets further emphasises the problems
with the collection counts. If you remember from previous discussions in order
to make both an artist and artwork views and facets interact correctly I have
to have a base collection and this dictates which item is used for the facet
count; in my case all counts relate to the number of artists. Thus if only one
artists has produced all the artworks tagged with "nature" subjects, then the
count for every node in the "nature" subtree is one, this is confusing as the
expectation would be for the counts to relate to the number of artworks.
At the moment I'm side-stepping the issue by removing the count from the facet.
Anyway as per usual thanks for all the good work.
