Hi Richard,

how would you feel about writing a tutorial about what you did and adding it to the tutorial page on the DevGuide with some screenshots? I'm sure this would be quite useful for a lot of us... And you would help set the tone towards more user-contributed documentation ;-)

(plus I'm sure you could be added to XWiki's Hall of Fame for doing this :-)

Many thanks in advance,

Guillaume

Hey it works!

I coded it thus:

1.1 Listing documents by searching on their object properties - XWikiUsers
and first name

#set ($list = $xwiki.search("select doc.fullName from XWikiDocument doc,
BaseObject obj, StringProperty prop where doc.fullName=obj.name and
obj.className='XWiki.XWikiUsers' and prop.id.id=obj.id and
prop.name='first_name' and prop.value='Graham'", 5, 0))

#includeForm("XWiki.Results")

1.1 Listing documents by searching on their object properties - Article and
title

#set ($list = $xwiki.search("select doc.fullName from XWikiDocument doc,
BaseObject obj, StringProperty prop where doc.fullName=obj.name and
obj.className='XWiki.ArticleClass' and prop.id.id=obj.id and
prop.name='title' and prop.value like 'Art%'", 5, 0))

#includeForm("XWiki.Results")

and it displays the results using the Results table (although with two
#includeForm("XWiki.Results") it displays the filter columns twice on the
first table and no fitler columns on the second table on the same page?).

So thanks again Jean-Vincent!!!! This is really going to help me (and
others) use XWiki to develop useful applications with it.

Best Regards,

Richard
