Building a facet search filter frontend in XSLT

[Filype Pereira <pe...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I am looking for some help in building a front end facet filter using XSLT.

The code I use is: http://pastebin.com/xVv9La9j

On the image attached, the checkbox should be selected. (You clicked and
submited the facet form. The URL changed)

I can use xsl:if, but there's nothing that I can use on the XML that will
let me test before outputting the input checkbox.

Has anyone done any similar thing?

I haven't seen any examples building a facet search filter frontend in XSLT,
the example.xsl that comes with solr is pretty basic, are there any other
examples in XSLT implementing the facet filters around?

Thanks,

Filype

Hi Filype,

in the response you should have a list of fq arguments something like
<arr name="fq">
<str>field:facetValue</str>
<str>field:FacetValue</str>
</arr>

use this to set your inputs to be selected / checked
