Search Help Pages
Search Help pages provide a form into which the user enters the text to be searched in the catalog. These Search Help pages offer searching hints and examples for each specific index. WebPac Pro comes with standard Search Help files for each searchable index in your system; you can customize these pages and provide examples that are relevant to your library and your patrons, utilizing examples that reflect your collection.

Search Help pages are customizable through Web Master mode and are located in the screens directory. All the Search Help pages are named srchhelp_x.html, where "x" is the index tag to search. The title Search Help page is named srchhelp_t.html, author is named srchhelp_a.html, subject is named srchhelp_d.html, and so on.

The Advanced Search Help page, srchhelp_X.html, offers the capability to limit searches using one or more criteria. You can customize this page to present only those limit options that your library is interested in offering.
