The Search Results tab in the Form Builder lets you change the way dtSearch displays the results of a search.
Items to include in search
results list
Add or remove items that will appear in search results. To remove
an item on the list, un-check the box next to it. Click the Add button to add a new item.
For each item, you can use Modify to customize the way it appears
in search results.
Search results header
Search results footer
This is the HTML that appears at the top and bottom of the search results
list. You can modify it to change the way search results appear.
The header and footer can contain the following special codes:
|
Symbol |
Meaning |
|
%%Request%% |
The search request that the user entered. |
|
%%FileCount%% |
The number of documents retrieved |
|
%%HitCount%% |
In search results, the total number of hits in all files. For a document, the number of hits in the document. |
Display the PDF Title as the filename for
PDF files
PDF files have a "Title" attribute that is usually more readable
than the filename. Check this box to make the Title appear in search
results instead of the filename.
Display the HTML <TITLE>
as the filename for HTML files
HTML files also have a title, included between <TITLE> and </TITLE>
tags in the file, that is often more readable than the filename.
Check this box to make the HTML title appear in search results instead
of the filename for HTML files.
Remove scripts from HTML
files when highlighting hits
HTML files often contain JavaScript code that may not work properly when
the file is displayed outside of its usual context. For example,
the JavaScript may refer to documents or objects that would appear in
another frame. Check this option to have dtSearch remove any JavaScript
it finds in an HTML file when highlighting hits. (The original HTML
file will be unaffected. This option only affects what dtSearch
Web will display when highlighting hits in an HTML file returned after
a search.)
Highlight hits in documents indexed using
the Spider
Check this box to enable highlighting of hits in documents that were indexed
using the Spider. To
make hit highlighting faster, create your index with the "Cache original
documents" option enabled.
Use HTTP Proxy
When highlighting documents indexed using the Spider, dtSearch Web must
download a local copy of the file (unless the index was created with caching
of original documents enabled). Check
the "Use HTTP Proxy" box, and supply the URL of the proxy server
to use, if dtSearch Web should use a proxy server when downloading web
pages.
