Repository List / webpac / trunk / doc / links.txt @ HEAD

This file describes how to make links within WebPac to other records.

Usual usages include links in ISIS files (when one record relates to another).
Values for search can be anything. It can be name of Authors (if you want
to see all books by same author) or it can be some field which references
some other field in ISIS (often used for links "includes also" when included
item is another record in isis).

Usage:


<format name="xxx"> tag defines format (with %s placeholders for
values) which will prodoce output. It's useful for producing links in html
like <a href="?rm=results&show_full=1&f=f900&v=%s">%s</a>

Explanation of parametars in upper a href:

	rm=results	show results page
	show_full=1	show detailed informations about records
			(if you omit this one, you will get just headline)
	f=swish_field	reference to swish field
	v=value		value which will be searched (WebPac *WILL NOT*
			add wildcard (*) at end! If you need it, add it
			in format!)

<isis> tag has following additional attributes:
	format_name="xxx" which is name of format defined earlier
	format_delimiter="xxx" which will be used to split formatted
		content to values which will be interpolated
		insetead of %s in link format (Be carefull not to include
		excessive whitespaces if you are generating html).

WebPac will keep <a href=""></a> and <br> like constructs. If you use some
other html, you will have to change back2html.pm!
