I have a basic XQuery search file working, with some indexing configuration, and I'm getting results back. Lots more to do, though:

• Format results for return, with document metadata to go along with the kwic summaries.
• Handle insertion of image fragments for gravures -- not sure how I'll actually do that, at this point.
• Hooking the AJAX return into the page with JS.
• Figuring out how/when to restrict search to normalized documents. This may required some configuration on the content div.

The other thing I've been working on is finding a decent approach to a stemming analyzer for these documents, and a stopword list. Looks like I may be able to use the French Lucene analyzer, but I'm not sure how well stemming will work.
