OK,

Re: Verity Search on dynamically generated site...

Didn't get a ton of answers on my original question - but I finally got the
thing working

For those interested, here 'tiz. (in final beta stages)

http://www.safety-kleen.com/CSD

Just hit "Search" down at the bottom.  This deals with Chemical Waste and
such, so "RCRA"  or "EPA" might be a good search term.

In order to get it to work like the client wished (which was causing all my
problems to start with) I ended up having to use both custom1 and custom2
variables to define the correct detail page and upper banner for each
result:

    <cfindex action="REFRESH"
         collection="CHEM_SEARCH"
         key="ID"
         type="CUSTOM"
         title="SERC_TITLE"
         query="CHEMSERV"
         body="SERC_BODY, SERC_TITLE, SERC_STATE"
         custom1="SERC_URL"
         custom2="SERC_BANNER"
         language="English">


Be happy to entertain any other questions, since I don't see many on Verity
searches and not a lot of answers are posted to asked questions either!!

Further Questions:
1. Why does the Verity Collection *ONLY* allow "custom1" and "custom2"? I
needed two more variables
2. Is there any way to define how many sentences/characters  the "summary"
variable displays OTHER than something like #Left(summary,250)#?
