Re: Limiting OPAC keyword search by material type
[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]
Hi there,
I think the problem is that in your system the material type field is
called M not m.
Viewing the source of your Limit page in the general part of the catalogue
shows:
MATERIAL type (Video, CD, etc):</td><td><select name=M>
<option value="">ANY
~~ snip ~~
<option value="r">3-D OBJECT
<option value="v">VID/VDISC/DVD
<option value="s">CDS
<option value="t">CASSETTES
</select>
I tried replicating this in our catalogue and the limit failed when it
didn't match the
token field name exactly including case.
regards
Susan

I would like to create web page to search our catalog via Keyword, but I
want to limit it to material type VIDEO/DVD (material type = v)
Here his the test page http://trexler.desales.edu/screens/srch_video.html
It does Keyword search, but does not limit it to the material type.
The HTML is as follows, I know I must be missing something. Thanks, Len

<option value="t">CASSETTES
</select>
<input type="SUBMIT" value="Search" />
