What Happens When You Search Locally Within an HTML-Based or XML-Based Book

When you open and search for information in an XML-based book on the docs.sun.com Web site, the site displays the book's table of contents with icons that indicate the relevance of book elements.

Any chapter, appendix, preface, glossary, or index marked with the icon is the most relevant to your search criteria.
Any chapter, appendix, preface, glossary, or index marked with the icon is the least relevant to your search criteria.

Book elements that have no relevance are not marked with an icon.

Words for which you search are highlighted within XML-based books. In this way, you can search and browse within a book at the same time. This feature is not available within HTML-based books.

Note –

The browsing mechanism that is available on the docs.sun.com Web site is not only a browsing mechanism, but also a mechanism that you can use to search within titles, subject categories, or product categories.

For example, you can restrict the set of documents that you want to search for a word by selecting the Product Categories tab, then clicking the Software, Solaris, Solaris 8, and Solaris 8 System Administrator Collection links, and then, in the Search For window, typing the word for which you want to search within that collection. When you browse to and open a book in that collection, that word is highlighted when it appears in the text.
