RE: Subject subfields suppressed

["Leo Papa" <papal@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Since this came up I've been experimenting with the display of title
subfields in our test webopac.

According to what Corey said, and what I see in the documentation, the
following BROWSE_t option should display hyperlinked subfields a and b,
for the 245 tag, and a non-hyperlinked subfield h.

BROWSE_t=245/ab/h|240/abc/0|970/t/0|ab/0

I've tried several permutions (restarting web services each time but
continually see all subfields in the 245 hyperlinked.

I don't see any documenation about using a zero, as shown above for the
240 and 970, etc. tags, rather than leaving a parameter blank.  But this
is the default value in our wwwoptions file and I noticed Corey used it in
his example.

Does anyone have an idea as to why the 245 subfield h is hyperlinked,
given the way I"ve used the BROWSE_t syntax above?  Is zero filling a null
paramater an option or a requirement?
