Hi I have the above requirement, for which I could not find a good way to do. I think the best way to explain my problem would be to give an example.
I have documents where each document represents a real estate property for sale in US. So, each document would have a city associated with it. (We index the document and maybe index a city field.) A user does a search for say "condominium", and i show him the 50,000 properties that meet that description. I need two other pieces of information for display - 1. I want to show a "select" box on the UI, which contains all the cities that appear in those 50,000 documents 2. Against each city I want to show the count of matching documents. For example the drop down might look like "Los Angeles" 10000 "San Francisco" 5000 (But, I do not want to show "San Jose" if none of the 50,000 documents contain it) Now, the user will be able to narrow down the search using one of the selections (which I can turn into a boolean query). My problem is, I do not know how to generate that 'select' list without having to actually access each of those 50,000 documents. Thanks, -Antony P.S.: The above app is fictional, since my employer won't like it if I expose the actual stuff I am working on. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
