& causing error on search

dorban · Post by **dorban** » Tue Nov 30, 2004 6:15 pm

When I search for something like "at&t" I get an error. I am using a modified version of the XML file that comes as an example on the search appliance.

If I search for "at&t" it will not find anything, but will put "at&t" in the search box on the results page. Hitting "search" on this page throws the original error.

Here's the error text...

SAXParseException Message is: Unterminated entity reference (Unknown system ID, line 3, column 12)

Thanks,
D.

What version of scripts (see the maintenance->tech support info page)?
Do you get the same problem using the default xsl file?

Scripts version is 5.1.3.2

With the default template, I get this error...

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

A semi colon character was expected. Error processing resource 'http://search.corp.firstindustrial.com/ ... ch?pr=defa...

<Query>at&t</Query>

I just noticed though that if I do my search with "&" with spaces on both sides, it works. Is there some way to have it translate "&" to "&" on the fly?

Thanks again.
D.

We expect to have scripts 5.1.5 on the update server later today. They will fix that problem.

I have updated Texis to 5.01.1101763737-linux. The texisScripts is still at 5.1.3.2, but it doesn't show that a newer update exists.

After doing the update, I search for... travel & entertainment at get this error:

SAXParseException Message is: Expected entity name for reference (Unknown system ID, line 3, column 17)

When I search for travel & entertainment though it works.

Hope that helps.

Sorry to keep bugging you. I did try it with the default xml display file that ships with the appliance, and I get the same error.

Sorry, there was a delay in getting the newer scripts out because we're going to 5.2 instead of 5.1.5. Should be available some time Friday.

Ok. 5.2 scripts are available on the update server now.

I found another issue that I'm guessing is similar...
The document title in word is "Landlord's Agreement". The ' I'm guessing is causing some kind of error. It bombs using IE, but not Firefox. Here's the error...

The XML page cannot be displayed
