Insert the following on the page that displays search results. You may place it on the same page as the search tag or a separate page.
<tr> <td> <% ecmSearchDisplay 0,"","1" %> </td> </tr> |
This search display example has the following properties:
Returns unlimited results when the search is performed.
Contains no style information.
Shows the last modified date of the content.
You can also set up the search display tag to display a default content block if a search is not performed. Then, if a search is performed, the results replace the content block. The sample code below does that:
<tr> <% if (Request.Form("ecmsearchtype") <> "") then %> <td> <% ecmSearchDisplay 0,"" %> </td> <% else %> <td> <% ecmContentBlock(1) %> </td> <% end if %> </tr> |
Listed below are the attributes for the SearchDisplay tag.
This attribute determines the number of search results displayed on a page. You may enter any integer. To display unlimited results, enter 0 (zero).
