Hi Erick -
I was trying to simplify and not waste anyone's time parsing my
requestHandler... That is, as you imply, bogus xml.
The basic question is: If I have two "sub queries" in a single
requestHandler, do they both run independently against the entire index?
Alternatively, is there some kind of "chain of results" whereby (a la SQL)
earlier result sets are passed to later subqueries and therefore those
later subqueries are ONLY looking at the results of earlier subqueries?
I have always assumed the former (each subquery runs agains the entire
index) but I can't find documentation to prove it and I have some odd
behavior (that I won't go into here yet) that suggests something else is
happening...
Oh - and thanks for the ReRanking mention! That sounds like it may be
quite useful!
