Parse the results into a list and do something like this: Math.min(results.size(), numFound) // Java min(len(results), numFound) # Python
Doesn't seem all that hard, and not worth duplicating the info. I don't ever remember needing to know the number of hits returned in a page. Either print the total or iterate over all returned rows. Next and prev buttons can be done with numFound, start, and the requested row count. wunder On 6/18/08 10:07 AM, "Geoffrey Young" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > maybe I'm just missing it, but I don't see a way to consistently (and > easily) know the number of returned documents without a lot of acrobatics. > > numFound represents the entire number of matching documents > > if numFound <= rows then numFound is the number of documents in the > response > > if numFound > rows then rows is the number of documents in the response > > if echoParams=none is set I need to count docs myself > > is there a reason for this complexity? a numDocs response field would > seem much simpler. > > --Geoff
