This is taxonomy/index design... One way is to have a series of fields by category:
TV - tv_size, resolution Computer - cpu, gpu Solr can have as many fields as you need, and if you do not store them into the index they are ignored. So if a user picks "TV", you pass these to Solr: q=*:*&facet=true&facet.field=tv_size&facet.field=resolution If a user picks "Computer", you pass these to Solr: q=*:*&facet=true&facet.field=cpu&facet.field=gpu The other option is to return ALL of the fields facet'd, but this is not recommended since you would certainly have performance issues depending on the number of fields.
