[MarkLogic Dev General] on the topic of cts:search

[Alan Darnell]

I'm unclear about the effect of the first parameter expression in  
cts:search.

I think I understand that if I do something like

	cts:search(doc(),"water")

I'm doing a cts:word-query search for water and the search is run  
against the whole document.

If I do something like

	cts:search(doc()/title,"water")

I've limited the word search to just the title element (I think).  At  
least only documents with the word in the title seem to come back.

But what is going on if I do something like

	cts:search(doc()/title, cts:element-word- 
query(xs:QName("abstract"),"water"))

I think I'm only searching  the abstract element and I think the first  
parameter to cts:search is limiting only the element that gets  
returned, but is that correct?  Does the first parameter to cts:search  
effect what part of the document is being searched?
