dbname

Name of the database to perform the search in. Optional.

Name of the server that hosts the database. Optional.

Name of the Domino CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) server to use to host the back-end classes. If specified, forces a CORBA session. If not specified, a Domino server must be running locally on the same machine that is running the JSP Web container. Default is null which creates a local, non-CORBA, session. Optional.

If you specify an id name, creates a variable that contains the associated lotus.domino.DocumentCollection object. The variable created is only available within the body of the ftsearch tag. If not specified, no programmatic access to the DocumentCollection object is available. Optional.

Maximum number of documents to return. The default is to return all documents. Optional.

Further qualifies the search by specifying which type of search to perform:

Option Name	Definition
database	Includes Domino databases in the search scope.
filesystem	Includes files other than Domino databases in the search scope.
fuzzy	Retrieves words that have a similar spelling to the specified search query.
stems	Retrieves words that have the same root as the specified search query, but perhaps have different prefixes or suffixes.

Password associated with the user specified in the user attribute. Default is null. Optional.

String to use to perform the full text search. Required.

Sort order of the resulting documents. Can be any of the following:

Option Name	Definition
dateascending	Sorts the resulting documents from the least to most recent based on the document's creation date.
datedescending	Sorts the resulting documents from the most to least recent based on the document's creation date.
score	Sorts the resulting documents beginning with the highest scoring matches based on the number of words specified in the query that match those in the resulting document.

Login information for the session. If this tag is being used in the context of a session tag, the value of this attribute is ignored. Optional.
