Hi! all,
I'm using web forms to create content in the XML format. Is it possible to perform search on the data inside the created content?(It seems search is available for meta data…)

Regards,
Janaka

Yes.  You need to identify which element values you want indexed.  These are configured by our WCM metadata extractor.  Extracted elements get set as a property and indexed via Lucene for query.  Lucene is not a XML database, and so to support search based in specific fields in your XML document, we need to turn XML querying into a metadata search.

You can read about the XML metadata extractor on our wiki:
