Dynamic List Plain

Adds a dynamic list in a contribution region on the page template. A dynamic list performs a search in the content server and displays everything matching particular criteria. Contributors can add to the list by checking in new content items with metadata matching the search criteria.

This dynamic list sample divides the search results page into several sections, presenting each of them in a separated <div> tag and allowing parameters to specify plain text (or elaborate HTML) to display in each section.

Parameters

ssTextColor: Changes the color of the text.

ssHoverColor: Changes the color of the mouseover text.

ssClassName: Specifies a CSS class name.

ssQueryText: Specifies the query that is performed in the content server.

ssLimitScope: Limits the scope of a search to within a Web site.

ssSortField: The name of the metadata field to sort the results. The default is "dInDate".

ssSortOrder: The order to sort the results. The default is "desc".

ssResultCount: The number of results to show per page. The default is 25.

ssCaptionText: Caption text to appear in the head of the results display. The default is "List Results".

ssReportText: Report text that displays below the caption and summarizes the results. The default is the following, where "TotalRows" is an Idoc variable standard for executing a search, and the "ssFirstHit" and "ssLastHit" variables are calculated in the fragment code to make the display easier:

Total: <$TotalRows$>
Items: <$ssFirstHit$> - <$ssLastHit$>

ssDisplayStart: Text to display at the start of the core list. The default is "".

ssRowStart: Text to display at the start of each row. The default is "".

ssRowLink: Text to display as the label of the "link" in each row. The default is "<$dDocTitle$>".

ssRowEnd: Text to display at the end of each row. The default is "".

ssDisplayEnd: Text to display at the end of the core list. The default is "".

ssWantMore: Boolean flag that specifies whether to include a "more..." button when necessary. The default is "true." (To limit the search to one batch of results, set this to "false.")

ssMoreText: Text to display as the label of the "more…" link when necessary. The default is "more…"

ssNoResults: Text to display when the search produces no results. The default is "No items match your search criteria".

ssTargetNodeID: Forces the target of a link so the contents display at a particular node, in the replaceable region of a secondary page. This is typically used for sharing content, where you include the same content item in multiple Web sites.
