DOM or XML representation of a query?

[Roy Klein <kl...@sitescape.com>]

Hi,

The "front-end" guys working on my application need a way to pass me complex
queries. I was thinking that it'd be pretty straightforward to hand them a
package which helps them to create a DOM object which describes a query
(i.e. nested Booleans combined with phrases and keyword searches, sort by
field, etc).   I did a few searches in the archive of this list, but didn't
find any examples, however, I suspect it's a common requirement amongst
members of this list.

Can anybody point be at an example of the above?

Thanks!

Roy

I suggest using OpenSearch API, this is what Nutch uses (oh, and also a 
company called Amazon ;)
