XSLT Code for Specifying Query Parameters

The source attribute of the inline frame tag in the “Inline Frame Example page” on page 114 points to
the customized front end, iframe-example-frontend. This front end submits selected parameters as
defined by the XSLT code shown in bold at the bottom of the following code example.




select="PARAM[@name != 'q' and
@name != 'ie' and
not(contains(@name, 'as_')) and
@name != 'btnG' and
@name != 'btnI' and
@name != 'site' and
@name != 'filter' and
@name != 'swrnum' and
@name != 'start' and
@name != 'access' and
@name != 'ip' and
(@name != 'epoch' or $is_test_search != '') and
not(starts-with(@name ,'metabased_'))]">












When users click the search button in this front end, getfields="rank.price.fly-type" and
num="3" are included in the search request along with the standard parameters. Consequently, the
result set will be limited to three results per page, and the specified meta tags will be retrieved for each
result.
