[MarkLogic Dev General] cts:search and xdmp:save()

Mon Jun 18 22:54:32 PDT 2012

Hi,

I am having some trouble with the cts:search. I have an application in which when a user enters a search term I take that term and search it through the marklogic collections and return the result. Now what problem I am facing is that in the database in my xml file I have a tag called <head>, now if in this head if I have any statement that has a "?" in it it is not being returned by the cts:search. For example if I search for a term say "EPL and Fixtures" what I do first is create a cts:element-value-match query to search the database first and store that query in a variable which gives me the following output-

Let $t := <v:results v:warning="non-element item"><cts:and-query>
<cts:or-query><cts:element-value-query>
<cts:element>_1:head</cts:element>
<cts:text xml:lang="en">EPL and Fixtures: Are the fixtures out?</cts:text>
<cts:option>case-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>diacritic-sensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>punctuation-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>unstemmed</cts:option>
</cts:element-value-query>
<cts:element-value-query>
<cts:element>_1:head</cts:element>
<cts:text xml:lang="en">Fixtures and the EPL 2009: Champion?</cts:text>
<cts:option>case-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>diacritic-sensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>punctuation-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>unstemmed</cts:option>
</cts:element-value-query>
</cts:or-query>
<cts:element-word-query>
<cts:element>_1:head</cts:element>
<cts:textxml:lang="en">EPL</cts:text>
<cts:option>case-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>diacritic-sensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>punctuation-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>unstemmed</cts:option>
</cts:element-word-query>
<cts:or-query>
<cts:element-word-query>
<cts:element>_1:head</cts:element>
<cts:textxml:lang="en">Fixtures</cts:text>
<cts:option>case-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>diacritic-sensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>punctuation-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>unstemmed</cts:option>
</cts:element-word-query>
<cts:element-word-query>
<cts:element>_1:head</cts:element>
<cts:textxml:lang="en">Fixtures*</cts:text>
<cts:option>case-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>diacritic-sensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>punctuation-insensitive</cts:option>
<cts:option>unstemmed</cts:option>
</cts:element-word-query>
</cts:or-query>
<cts:collection-query>
<cts:uri>dictionaryid </cts:uri>
</cts:collection-query>
<cts:collection-query><cts:uri>dictionarystatus</cts:uri>
</cts:collection-query>
</cts:and-query>
</v:results>

Now I make a call to my cts search-
Let result := cts:search(/wl:start, $t)

The above does not return any result. And this is happening only for those terms in my <head> tag that have "?".

Also I wanted to write the output of my xqy file into an xml file. Using xdmp:save() we can create a text file. Is there any way to create an xml file?

Thanks
Yashmeet Singh
