Hello all,
this is a very specific question which answer I believe hide in one of
the xsl:s.  

When a user picks a collection in the submission process from the
dropdown list of all collections a string-length of max 50 is set
somewhere. I cannot find its whereabouts. Users end up trying to
distuingish their collection to submit to from drop down option values
looking like this

<div xmlns="http://di.tamu.edu/DRI/1.0/"; class="ds-form-content">
<select id="aspect_submission_submit_SelectCollectionStep_field_handle"
class="ds-select-field" name="handle" title="Select the collection you
wish to submit an item to.">
<option value="">Select a collection...</option>
<option value="2043/6050">Student Essays / Utbildningsvetenskap med
inrik...</option>
<option value="2043/4488">Student Essays / Utbildningsvetenskap med
inrik...</option>
<option value="2043/7087">Student Essays / Utbildningsvetenskap med
inrik...</option>

 which is far from optimal.

I have looked in structural.xsl, [localtheme].xsl, dri2xhtml/*.xsl
without success. We have made adjustments of various  max chars of
titles, filenames etc in the local theme, but not on collection names in
drop-downs at submission.The width of the dropdown list have been
adjusted in the css to see if that would help, but it is quite obvious a
string-length setting hiding somewhere. The collection names seem to be
shortened only in this particular display.

We use DSpace 1.7.2 XMLUI and have built our own theme based on
Kubrick.xsl.

Anyone with ideas how to solve this, rather than shortening names of
collections?

Kind regards
Jessica Lindholm
