• Article Type: General
• Product: Aleph
• Product Version: 18.01

Description:
When we enter a serial request from the blank ILL form, only the first word of the article author shows up on the request confirmation and within the ILL2 application.

Resolution:
I see that in your "new-ill-journal-request" file in the $alephe_root/www_f_eng directory, you have this line for the Article Author field:

<input size=40 maxlength=120 name="BIB___70012a_2500" value=$2500>

For the same line, we have this in our new-ill-journal-request file:

<input size=40 maxlength=180 name="BIB___70012a_2500" value="$2500">

The lack of quotes around the field is making the difference, particularly when you include punctuation in the author name, such as a comma and period. You could verify this by testing with a name with no punctuation. To fix it, just change the file to include quotes around the placeholder variable.
