You might search for existing categories with summ, and get the number of each category in a second (nested) search. For the example I assume your database field is named db_cat. Don't miss allcase=t in the nested search, because this makes it much faster:[search db=my.db&neDB_CATdatarq=[blank]&DB_CATsort=1&DB_CATsumm=t] [founditems] [text]v_cat=[db_cat][/text] [search db=my.db&eqDB_CATdatarq=[v_cat]&allcase=t] [v_cat] ([numfound)
[/search] [/founditems] [/search]Note: If you do not have all available categories in the database but want those categories listed like cat4 (0) you can't use the nested search. Then you search for each known category seperately. Peter ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
