Displaying Collection Contents
You can display the contents of your collection database to see which attributes
are set for each collection. The default installation of Netscape Enterprise Server
uses the HTML-description.pat file to display information about each of your
collections that have been defined as displayable (NS-display-select = YES) in
the dblist.ini file. The collection contents typically include these items:
• collection name, label, and description
• collection format
• number of attributes in the collection and a list of their names
• number of documents in the collection
• collection size and status
• language and character set
• input and output date formats
To display your collection database contents, type this line in the web
browser’s URL location field:
http:// yourServer /search?NS-search-page=c
Using the Query Operators
To perform an effective search, you need to know how to use the query
operators. You can only do Boolean searches, so all the subsequent
information is based on Boolean search rules.
Note
The query language is not case-sensitive. The examples use uppercase for
clarity only.
The search engine interprets the search query based on a set of syntax rules.
For example, by entering the word region, the actual word region and all its
stemmed variations (such as regions and regional) are found. The search results
are ranked for “importance,” which means how close the matched word comes
to the originally input search criteria. In the example above, region would rank
higher than any of the stemmed variants.
