Hi Lucia

The default icon and link look like
[link][icon][/link] in a format statement.
To change what the icon links to, you can use something like:

<a href='link address'>[icon]</a>

If the link address comes from metadata, eg URL, you can do the following
<a href='[URL]'>[icon]</a>

If this is not whatyou are after, there are a few resources that might help:

A summary of all formatting features and commands:
http://www.greenstone.org/cgi-bin/library?e=p-en-faq-utfZz-8&a=p&p=faqcustomize#customizeformat

Some example collections which have documentation about their configuration:
http://www.nzdl.org/cgi-bin/library#documentedexamplecollections

Section 2.3 of the developers guide.
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/greenstone/Develop-en.pdf

Fiji workshop, greenstone tutorials, downloadable from
http://www.greenstone.org/cgi-bin/library?e=p-en-home-utfZz-8&a=p&p=docs

Hope these help.

Regards,
Katherine Don

Hi Lucia, Just to add briefly to what Katherine wrote: In order to modify the search results format statement in question in the GLI: You need to click the "Design" tab, Choose the "Format Features" Design Section, then choose feature "Search". In the box labled HTML Format String, you can edit the format string for the search results as Katherine describes.

One caution is that the 'Exploded' option is needed in order break down each ISIS record into separate fields in the Greenstone collection. However I need some assistance to change the format of the search results and was wondering if there exists a tutorial on the formatting features in the design option of the application. My main issue is that I would like to link the default 'icon' image to a link and would like to know how to edit the source of that particular control.
