Thank you for sharing this, Eva! There is an existing section of the docs with similar content, but yours is much more thorough. I think your content should be incorporated there:

Hi I have created manual in Czech how to create an Evergreen search widget on o web page. As I think more people could be interested in something like that I am sending English version of themanual - possibly it could be included somewhere into Evergreen docummentation (only I am sure it will be necessary to correct my possible English mistyping or wording at first ;-)). Sincerely Eva Integrating a search idget to a web page Simple search box Example of HTML code: <form role="search" id="searchForm" method="get" class="searchform" action="http://your_catalog/eg/opac/results"; accept-charset="UTF-8"> <label id="searchLabel" for="search"><b>Search the Catalog:</b></label><br> <input type="search" value="" name="query" id="search" size="30"> <input class="searchbutton" type="submit" value="Search" /> </form> Advanced search box Example of HTML code: <form role="search" id="searchForm" method="get" class="searchform" action="http://your_catalog/eg/opac/results"; accept-charset="UTF-8"> <label id="searchLabel" for="search"><b>Search the Catalog: </b></label> <input type="search" value="" name="query" id="search" size="30"> <label id="search_qtype_label"><b>Type:</b> <select name="qtype" id="qtype" aria-label="Select query type:"> <option value='keyword' selected="selected">Keyword</option> <option value='title'>Title</option> <option value='jtitle'>Journal Title</option> <option value='author'>Author</option> <option value='subject'>Subject</option> <option value='series'>Series</option> </select> </label> <label id="search_itype_label"><b>Format: </b> <select id='item_type_selector' name='fi:item_type' aria-label="Select item type:"> <option value=''>All Formats</option> <option value='a'>Books and Journals</option> <option value='i'>Nonmusical Sound Recording</option> <option value='j'>Musical Sound Recording</option> <option value='g'>Video</option> </select> </label> <label id="search_locg_label"><b>Library: </b> <select aria-label='Select search library' name='locg'> <option value='1' class="org_unit"> All Libraries </option> <option value='2' selected="selected" class="org_unit"> Central Library </option> <option value='10' class="org_unit"> Little Library </option> </select> </label> <input class="searchbutton" type="submit" value="SEarch" /> </form> Encoding For non English characters it is vital to set the parameter accept-charset=„UTF-8“ in the form (see above). If the parameter is not set, records with non English characters will not be retrieved! Setting the document type You can set the document types to be searched using paremeter „option value=“ in the form. For the value use MARC 21 code defining the type of record (i.e. Leader, position 06). For example for musical recording use <option value='j'>Musical Sound Recording</option> Setting the Library You can set the Library to be searched in using parameter „option value=“ in the form. For the value use Evergreen database.organization unit ID. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yamil Suarez <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: 2016-08-18 18:40 GMT+02:00 Subject: Re: Widget for searching Evergreen catalog. To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Eva, Do you mind sending this again, but to the Documentation mailing list? I understand if that is a surprising request. I may be the only active DIG member from the documentation group that get emails from this special email address ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>), though other valuable Evergreen community members get copies of this email to help answers incoming questions. If you send it to the list, other from the community can learn more about the challenges about making sure code works with Unicode. We can then debate right no the mailing list where is the best location put your information in the official manual. http://libmail.georgialibraries.org/mailman/listinfo/open-ils-documentation Does that work for you?
