发明名称 Search refinement graphical user interface
摘要 A system, method, and processor readable medium including processor readable code embodied therein are provided that enable a user to refine a search query using a graphical user interface. A user may be presented with a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI may enable the user to input parameters into a first search query. The first search query may be run in a database. The system may determine whether any documents stored in the database satisfy the first search query. If the system determines that one or more documents satisfy the first search query, the system may retrieve a search results that includes the one or more documents. The system may then determine what type of information is included in the search result. Based on the type of information determination, the system may identify a search refinement option that may enable the user to limit the search result. The user may select a search refinement option to limit the search. The search refinement option may be applied to only those documents found in the search result. In this manner, the search query that includes the search refinement option does not need to be run against all of the objects in the database again.
