Luigi Spagnolo	Sunday 18 January 2009 12:50:34 pm Hello, I'm new at this forum and at Exponential in general. I'm studying how to build a faceted browsing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faceted_browser) application based on Exponential 4.0. I would ask you the following questions: - Suppose I have multiple attributes of datatype "keywords" for the same content class: eg. for a content class "Project" I may have the attributes "categories","topics covered", "tools used", etc. Can I use ezkeywordlist or eztagcloud to obtain the keywords "belonging" to a single given attribute (eg. only "categories"), or do I need custom functions? - Can I extract contents matching two or more different keywords using the keyowrd fetch fuctions (or other standard content fecth functions? - What about keywords related to other keywords (because they both occur for a given object)? Is there a standard way to get them? - In case it's needed to build custom functions - as I suppose after reading the documentation - do you suggest alternative solutions to start from, e.g. using related objects instead of keywords? Thank you in advance.

Hello,
I'm new at this forum and at Exponential in general. I'm studying how to build a faceted browsing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faceted_browser) application based on Exponential 4.0.

I would ask you the following questions:
- Suppose I have multiple attributes of datatype "keywords" for the same content class: eg. for a content class "Project" I may have the attributes "categories","topics covered", "tools used", etc. Can I use ezkeywordlist or eztagcloud to obtain the keywords "belonging" to a single given attribute (eg. only "categories"), or do I need custom functions?
- Can I extract contents matching two or more different keywords using the keyowrd fetch fuctions (or other standard content fecth functions?
- What about keywords related to other keywords (because they both occur for a given object)? Is there a standard way to get them?
- In case it's needed to build custom functions - as I suppose after reading the documentation - do you suggest alternative solutions to start from, e.g. using related objects instead of keywords?

Thank you in advance.
