Hello list,
please see this:

\startbuffer[test]
<text>
  <div>
    <p>In this page there is a <name idref="id1">cat</name>,
      a <name idref="id2">dog</name>
     and a <name idref="id3">horse</name>.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
    <p>In this page there's only a <name idref="id2">fox
terrier</name>.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
    <p>In this page you find a <name idref="id1">persian cat</name>
     and a <name idref="id3">horse</name>.</p>

----------------------------------------

It's a simplified version of the documents I'm working on:
- it's XML
- the index entries are already defined
- the entries of the index have an "id" attribute and they are
referred in the main text with an "idref" attribute
- \Animal[sortkey]{entry} is used to index the terms in the text
- "sortkey" and "entry" are calculated by the Lua code, that reads the
idref and finds the right entry inside the <index> element (it also
caches the entries)

Context has no problems with that code, but the index I get (page 4) is
something like this:

c
Cat 1
Cat 3

d
Dog 1
Dog 2

h
Horse 1
Horse 3

What I'd expect is instead:

c
Cat 1,3

d
Dog 1,2

h
Horse 1,3

Could you explain me why everytime I get a distinct entry in the index,
even when the sort key and the entry are the same? (or I only think
they are, but they are not really)
Thanks in advance,
Massi
