No. facet.query will not filter the results. It is applied on top of the current result set (the documents matching your q and fq parameters). If you specify multiple facet.query parameters, you will get a count for each of them. > since i am very new to > solr so i dont understand how facet counting behaves in that case as i have > seen lots of website showning facet count for multiple terms like amazon > does ... in amazon if i search laptop on left pane it shows me count of > each > brands as well as count of display sizes also but showing total result set > for query laptop on right section. so they would be doing it.... i am > assuming this must be some simple task. > I guess that's just simple facet.field in play. You have only fixed set of sizes in your field 'x', so you do a facet.field=x and you get a count for each term in field 'x'. > > Here is example for my req: > 1. i wanted to search "red dress"... > > left section has some filters like size as "small", "large", brands as > Versace,Marc Jacobs....... > > As i fire this query it should return me all result matched as "red dress" > on right section and i should get count of small, large, versace, Marc > Jacobs..... considering i am having all information in a single field as > descp index field...

For the scenario you have described, you can do q=red dress&facet=true&facet.field=size&facet.field=brands and so on for each field you want to use as a facet. When a user clicks on a facet value say "versace", you make a query like q=red dress&*fq=brand:versace*&facet=true&facet.field=size and so on for all fields you want to use as a facet (note, unless 'brand' is a multi-valued field, there is no need to include facet.field=brand because a value has already been selected and facet.field won't match anything) -- Regards, Shalin Shekhar Mangar.
