As Neal suggested, check out the xmlsearch code, which is also bundled in the contrib directory of 3.1.6. You can avoid any HTML code in the excerpts by turning off the add_anchors_to_excerpt attribute, and changing start_ellipses, end_ellipses, start_highlight, and end_highlight. I suppose these attribute definitions should be added to xml.conf in contrib/xmlsearch. I think there will also be a problem with the 3.2 betas, not just with excerpts but with all $&(var) expansions, in that all accented characters are mapped back to ISO-8850-1 character entities, which, if I understand correctly, are invalid in XML. -- Gilles R.
