Thanks Tim. Yes, the results are transformed with xslt in the .net page after getting the response xml back from the handler. So, SOLR is called via http from the very light .net page. Besides the transform, SOLR does all of the work with the help of some of my custom classes that utilizes a generated xml config file that has category to facet to query item type mappings.

I did a search and noticed pages were executed through aspx. Are you using .net to parse the xml results from SOLR? Nice site, just trying to figure out where SOLR fits into this.

I've been using it for a while now and I have recently brought one of my side projects online. I have several other projects that will be using solr for it's search and facets. Please check out www.pricejunkie.com and let us know what you think.. You can give feedback and/or sign up on the mailing list for future updates. The site is very basic right now and many new and useful features plus merchants and product categories will be coming soon! I thought it would be a good idea to at least have a few people use it to get some feedback early and often. Some of the nice things behind the scenes that we did with solr: - created custom request handlers that have category to facet to attribute caching built in - category to facet management - ability to manage facet groups (attributes within a set facet) and assign them to categories - ability to create any category structure and share facet groups - facet inheritance for any category (a facet group can be defined on a parent category and pushed down to all children) - ability to create sub-categories as facets instead of normal sub categories - simple xml configuration for the final outputted category configuration file I'm sure there are more cool things but that is all for now. Join the mailing list to see more improvements in the future. Also.. how do I get added to the Using Solr wiki page? Thanks, Mike Austin
