Changing source node - Bug in XSLTSearch?
Hi

I tried changing the $source node by making a little modification to XSLTSearch.

I wanted the search to take place in all child nodes of the currently selected level 1 node. So I changed this
```
<xsl:variable name="source" select="string(ps:getParameter(string(//macro/source), '-1'))"/>
```
to this
```
    <xsl:variable name="source">
        <xsl:value-of select="string($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node [@level=1]/@id)"/>
    </xsl:variable>
```
However, this did not work.

I also had to change this line:
```
<xsl:with-param name="items" select="./descendant-or-self::node"/>
```
to this
```
<xsl:with-param name="items" select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($source)/descendant-or-self::node"/>
```
As far as I can see the . in the original line means that the search should take place on the search page itself and all it's childs, if any.

Is this a bug in XSLTsearch or do I misunderstand something? :S

Hi Martin

Maybe the solution is to simply write this in the first variable

<xsl:variable name="source" select="string(ps:getParameter(string(//macro/source), $currentPage/@id))" />

Then I think XSLTsearch will only return results from the current node and it's children.

Could this be the solution?

I have no problem making XSLTSearch search through the search page and all of its child nodes.

It does this by default and, as I write, I think that it is a bug.

More specifically it is the "." (dot) in this line
```
<xsl:with-param name="items" select="./descendant-or-self::node"/>
```
that should be changed to "umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($source)" so the line looks like this in stead:
```
<xsl:with-param name="items" select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($source)/descendant-or-self::node"/>
```
THEN it searches in the node specified in the "source" parameter and all of it's child nodes - but not until the fix above has been made.
