    Select, Save/Mail, Add to My e-Shelf buttons missing from Results screen

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

    Problem Symptoms:
    The results of a Words-based search (such as "WIN" / Instructor) display OK, but there are no buttons for Select, Save/Mail , Add to My e-Shelf , etc., in the Results screen.

    Cause:
    These buttons are in the "short-include-buttons-xxxnn" screens. The ./www_f_eng/short-2-head-xxx30 screen lacks the "<include> short-include-buttons" line .

    Resolution:
    1. Add the "<include> short-include-buttons" line to the short-2-head-xxx30 screen
    2. Restart the www_server

    Additional Information

    The following screens have an include for short-include-buttons-xxxnn:

    > grep short-include-buttons *
    short-1-head:<include>short-include-buttons
    short-1-head-xxx01:<include>short-include-buttons
    short-1-head-xxx30:<include>short-include-buttons>
    ...
    short-2-head:<include>short-include-buttons
    short-2-head-xxx01:<include>short-include-buttons
    short-2-head-usm30:<include>short-include-buttons
    short-4-head:<include>short-include-buttons

    Though short-2-head-xxx01 and short-2-head-usm30 include "short-include-buttons", short-2-head-xxx30 does not. (The $alephe_tab/tab_base.lng, col. 4, specifies that the -xxx30 suffix should be searched first, then xxx01, then usm30.)

    Here's what short-2-head-xxx01 looks like:

    <!-- filename: short-2-head-xxx01 -->
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>&f-base - Search Results</title>

    <include>meta-tags
    <include>include-window
    <include>submit-form-include
    <include>short-select-include
    </head>

    <body topmargin="0"
    onload="window.focus();">

    <include>head-1
    <include>find-include-buttons

    <include>short-include-buttons <------------ line missing from short-2-head-xxx30

    <include>short-include-2

    <end short-2-head-xxx01 >
