click and view documents

[Roland Martin]

Hi Cayla,

You're on the right lines - here's what I did...

- Set up a custom Chameleon query page (I forget how to do this but I'm sure
there are instructions somewhere)
- Modify the local QUERYRESULTS.PHTML page just below line 252 (THIS IS FOR
LOCAL LAYER RESULTS etc), modifying the code to create a hyperlink from one
of the attributes

It looks like the code's been rewritten since I played with it last, but I
added a routine to check for an attribute called HYPERLINK, and a second one
called HREF, and link them together. It may want to be around line 319 or
thereabouts?

If you email me off-list I'll send you an example.

Cheers,
Roland.
