Changeset 7594 for trunk/gsdl/src/recpt/receptionist.cpp

Timestamp:

Message:

"I'm feeling lucky" functionality (a la Google). An extra argument ("ifl") can be specified to a query -- in this case, the user will be taken directly to the first matching document.

You can add a checkbox to the query form to get this functionality:

<input type=checkbox name="ifl">I'm feeling lucky!

This functionality is also very useful to go directly from some key value (eg. a unique file name) to a document, from within format statements. This removes the need to know the HASH ID of the target document.
