Hi
In the result list, the title is toften truncated. Is there a way to get at the full title, or at leat to specify the length of the returned title?

It's always limited to 60-70 chars. There's no setting to adjust it.

That's a strange limitation.

I would have thought that this should be done via the XSL stylesheet.

Is there a possibility to get this changed? Perhaps via XML?

I found a work-around :

To get the full title :

- Define an additional field : FullTitle
- Populate it from the <title< tag
- modify the XSL accordingly

Since I am not an XML wizard, How do I implement Michel's fix in the standard xml stylesheet??
thanks

Do you already have the additional field populated from the title? You can look at the raw XML search results by adding dropXSL=1 to the search URL.

If so, then just edit the stylesheet, search for "ResultTitle", and change it to "FullTitle".

If I add DropXSL=1 and look at the page I do not see FullTitle anywhere.

I do have the latest scripts, and I took new copy of ExampleXSL to test with.

You'll need to define an Additional Field manually with the name "FullTitle", and use "data from field" to populate that with the title from the page. Once that's set up, pages will need to be re-walked to get the FullTitle field populated. Let us know if you need details on setting this up.

You can verify the presence of the FullTitle data in the List/Edit URLs interface for any of the URLs. Once FullTitle is there, we can start looking at the XSL to use it.

The documentation is not complete on the settings for:
Additional Fields
Name ? fulltitle
Type ? text
Searchable ?
Sortable ?
Output ? Guess I need to set this.

Then "Data From Field" I dont get even with the explaination.
