resultType

                     The resultType attribute is used to indicate
                     what response a WFS should return to user once
                     a GetFeature request is processed.
                     Possible values are:
                        results - meaning that the full response set
                                  (i.e. all the feature instances) 
                                  should be returned.
                        hits    - meaning that an empty response set
                                  should be returned (i.e. no feature
                                  instances should be returned) but
                                  the "numberOfFeatures" attribute
                                  should be set to the number of feature
                                  instances that would be returned.

Value

Type based on xsd:string

Valid value	Description
results	Indicates that a complete response should be generated by the WFS. That is, all response feature instances should be returned to the client.
hits	Indicates that an empty response should be generated with the "numberOfFeatures" attribute set (i.e. no feature instances should be returned). In this manner a client may determine the number of feature instances that a GetFeature request will return without having to actually get the entire result set back.
