• Article Type: General
• Product: Aleph
• Product Version: 20

Desired Outcome Goal:
To include the patron name with the salutation in circulation letters to the patron.

Procedure:
1. Make a backup copy of funcs-misc.xsl (in the form directory, for example: ./xxx01/form_eng)

2. Find these 8 lines of code in funcs-misc.xsl and delete them:
<xsl:template name="choose-salutation-title">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="./z302-salutation-title != ''">
<xsl:value-of select="./z302-salutation-title"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise><br/><br/>Dear Sir/Madam,<br/><br/></xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>


3. In their place put the following:

<xsl:template name="choose-salutation-title">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="./z302-salutation-title != '' and /z302-address-0 != ''">
<xsl:call-template name="generic-line">
<xsl:with-param name="line" select='concat("Dear", //z302-salutation-title, " ", //z302-address-0, ",")'/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="./z302-salutation-title = '' and /z302-address-0 != ''">
<xsl:call-template name="generic-line">
<xsl:with-param name="line" select='concat("Dear", " ", //z302-address-0, ",")'/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="/z302-address-0 = ''">
<xsl:call-template name="generic-line">
<xsl:with-param name="line" select="'Dear Sir/Madam,'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

4. Save funcs-misc.xsl and run util I/6. (All l of the GUI clients should be closed, so that when circulation is opened, it will automatically download the changed funcs-misc.xsl)
