: It would be nice to a nice HTML page allowing the user to query and display : 1) some faceting info such as hit counts with links that allowed the user to narrow their search results. : 2) highlighted summaries : 3) easy way to query the dismax handler as well as the standard request handler : Most likely this would be built into the admin pages (and have access to all the field info).
as a shorter term solution to a progromaticly built page that was aware of the schema and the registered handelrs, we could just enhance form.jsp to include the various facet and dismax params as flat HTML, and to use the XSLTResponseWriter to generate results with hyperlinks for filtering/expanding the results. we might even want to solicit volunteers from solr-users, as there seem to be quite a few users who aren't familiar with java but would like to help contribute to the project ... but i don't know if it's bad form to go asking for volunteers on the user list. -Hoss
