UI support for Multi-Select Facet queries?
Greetings,
I see that we can query multiple facets for a search with a syntax like "fq=grade:A OR grade:B". However, I only know how to do this by modifying the URL parameter. Is there a UI component that allows you to select multiple facet values? I'm thinking something like a checkbox next to each value. I'm using the default UI @ http://localhost:8983/solr/browse, and didn't see an obvious way to do this.

Nothing that I'm aware of, open-source-wise. It'd be a fairly straightforward set of changes to the /browse templates though.
Blacklight - http://projectblacklight.org - is a nice UI on top of Solr, and I've seen some demos where multi-select faceting was customized into it, but I don't think the core of it yet has that.
We have it on our search system (in fact, multiselect was implemented specifically for this initially) - http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/
Are you looking for just something to play around with or something to go into production with? No UI technology constraints?

Thanks Erik.
Is there any available UI that supports multi-select faceting?

No, multiselect is not wired into /browse. That'd be a nice addition though.
