Re: [VuFind-Tech] Excluding facets

[Eoghan Ó C. <eog...@gm...>]

In Greg Pendelbury's University of Southern Queensland release (
http://libcat.usq.edu.au/), the selected facet is greyed out and has a tick
next to it - this seems more useful for the user than removing it. Also, *I
think* the work they've done on Subformats would work for the example Damian
gives of printed/online books (see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=3318FC529C6A6E448A90CB5AB5B1F56C12C7B1CCFE%40EXCHMB.usq.edu.au).
