By default, in addition to the other search criteria, the Script searches for a

Content

anchor according to the data type of its data holder.

For example, suppose that the search scope of a

Content

anchor is the following string:

Further suppose that you define no other search criteria for the anchor. If you map the anchor to a data holder that has a type of

xs:string

, the anchor retrieves the entire string.

If the data holder has a type of

xs:integer

, the Script searches for the first substring that matches the data type. Assuming that you configure the anchor with

direction = forward

, the anchor retrieves the integer

81

. If

direction = backward

, the anchor retrieves

95

.

Now suppose the data holder has a type of

xs:integer

, and the schema restricts the data holder to values less than

60

. The Script searches for an integer that conforms to the restriction and retrieves

56

.
