Dynamic search fields in custom search component based on query

gkkhatal

Hi All,

We have a custom search component which is based on query. There is a dropdown on the component and a query is associated with each value in the dropdown. When any option is selected, search results are shown based on associated query. All these queries are related to a same object type. So the column names were statically listed in the jsp file and the component xml file(columns_list). Now we want to add one more option in the dropdown but its associated query will return objects of different object type. Need help on how can we update the component to support dynamic column names based on the selected query and object type? We are using Documentum 6.5 SP2.

Thanks

Hi,

Try to look @ search_component.xml which does have default object name on

which search is being currently happening.

If your object type is a substype of the above object_type then it does

things naturally,

else you need to customize the component

Currently i dont have webtop ,so i could not be much specific what else to

be done.
