[Isis-users] links in iaH

[Piet De Keyser]

Egbert,

Yes, I tried many variations, but the  "+" sign gave me errors when used within the link anchor. The solution with iocc and nocc works perfectly. An extra complication here was that the content of three fields is displayed as one; so I had to add the extra ";" again after the last occurrence of the previous field content by means of the dummy fields.

Piet,

the 'official' method to avoid a final interpunction is to use the '+' sign with a 'conditional' literal, i.e. the pipes. Therefore : v650+|; | . Did you try that (I didn't) and how does it come out ? It might be simpler.

Hi all,



I want to share this with you, because small things matter too.

If you build links in iaH it can be difficult to find a good layout. Suppose you want all of your keywords to be links, then it is not nice to have this:



        Keywords: xxx; yyy; zzz;



(where each of them is clickable as link) because they should not end with semi-colon.



You would want:



        Keywords: xxx; yyy; zzz



i.e. without the annoying semi-colon at the end.



It could even be more complicated if you have more than one field for keywords (e.g. topical, geographical, uncontrolled keywords) and you all want them listed as one field. This is my case: I have v650, v651 and v653 (without subfields). Hiere is my layout - and it does the trick:



if p(v650) then '<tr><td width="10%" valign="top"><font face=arial size=2 color="green"><b>Keywords</b></td><td><font face=arial size=2>',('<a target="_blank"
href="http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?
IsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v650,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA<http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?%0bIsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v650,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA>">',v650,'</a>',if  iocc<nocc(v650) then '; ' fi),,

"; "d651,

if p(v651) then
('<a target="_blank" href="http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?
IsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v651,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA<http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?%0bIsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v651,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA>">',v651,'</a>',if iocc<nocc(v651) then '; ' fi), fi,

"; "d653,

if p(v653) then
('<a target="_blank" href="http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?
IsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v653,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA<http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/wxis.exe/iah/scripts/?%0bIsisScript=iah.xis&lang=du&base=CATALOG&nextAction=lnk&exprSearch=',s(mpu,v653,mpl),'&indexSearch=MA>">',v653,'</a>',if  iocc<nocc(v653) then '; ' fi), fi,
