Looking at the Perl script that generates Koha facets, in my opinion they are not good and... cannot be better :-) I found a very good solution in the Solr demo of BibLibre. Try http://catalogue.solr-demo.biblibre.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=*%3A*&filters= that retrieves all records in the catalog. I think that facets cannot be generated but the indexer itself. Don't know if Zebra can generate them. Hope yopu find a solution. Stefano
