Ok, I managed using A, but for B this is what I get :<br />
<table width="100%" class="concordtable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th class="concordtable">My metadata is embedded in the XML of my corpus!</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="5" class="concordgrey">                                                  <br />                                                 No
XML annotations found for this corpus.                                                 </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br />and I have indexed all the text attibutes as if they were s-attributes<br /><br /><br
