[Isis-users] Linking to other database

[De Smet Egbert]

Hi,

the new script for full inverted generation (with mx, not wxis which is the standard one for ABCD Central) will automatically take into account an existing cipar file.
The logics will be as follows :
- if there is a cipar file (*.cip) in the bases/dbn/data folder this will be used; this file can also refer to actab, uctab and stopwords files and then these will be re-directed;
If no cipar file is found :
- if the database is Unicode (which we are finalizing now, only Windows remaining as a challenge but no help from BIREME...) then the special UTF8 table is to be found in the bases/dbn/data folder, if not Unicode then the script will search for the normal isisac.tab and isisuc.tab in the data-folder of the database
- if these files are not found in the data-folder of the database, the script will search for such tables in the general 'bases' -folder, so these tables define the sets for all databases without a specific own table;
- if none of these are found, the internal CISIS actab and uctab (/ansi) will be used in inverting.

If there are any comments or problems with this, please let me know.
We plan to include this script (but if necessary I can also avail it on request) in ABCD2.0 once the last problems of Unicode are sorted out - hopefully soon (but I keep saying that for the last 2 years...).

Hi Renate,
I am currently interested in using a ref command in fst. For example, I have a DDC  (Dewey Decimal Classification) database. The user would like to have an index of the description of the DDC númber, but in the bibliographic database I have only the classification.number.So I need to use a ref to get the description from the DDC database. Ernesto (the guru in CISIS) told me me, and I tested it, that I need to use the cipar parameter in mx, but I didn't know how to set up the a cipar to be used in the Internal mx comato of ABCD.
If I understand well, you are interested in a link that I call hyperlink, that is, from the results of a search, retrieve other records of the same databse by clicking on the  name or subject  displayed . Guild calls this "Busqueda cruzada" See on http://abcdwiki.net/wiki/es/index.php?title=Hacer_b%C3%BAsquedas_cruzadas_por_autores,_materias,_etc_que_abran_una_nueva_ventana_mostrando_los_resultados_en_el_iAH

Edwin

Hi Edwin,

I see you are also busy with linking between databases. Hope you were successful.

I wanted to do the following like i had it in Winisis:

When for example the name of a person is displayed, it should show a link to more songs by the same artist in the database. I assume one would use href in the FST and display, etc., but first I would like to know whether it works.
Your help will be appreciated.

Regards
Renate
