bib_display
The bibliographic record display is fully customizable in WebPac Pro and is done so through two separate files, one of which is the bib_display.html, the Bibliographic Record Display Form . See also the discussions, as this is the other file that controls field displays.

The bib_display page behaves like other standard WebPac Pro forms in the sense that if the bib_display.html does not exist in your screens directory, there is a system default file that will be invoked.

This file is what controls the existence of tabs that we see here for Copy Status, More Details, Find Similar Items, and Full Record.

This page is almost entirely made up of tokens. The <--{recordinfo: [variable fields tags]}--> defines the variable length fields from the Bibliographic Records (based on Field Group Tag) that will display in this page. The fields will display as indicated by the tag IF the field exists in the bibliographic record.

This very essential token could display five times in the bib_display.html page, with varying elements or field group tags.

One, near the top of the file, which controls the fields that display above the attached records (the attached record fields for items and checkins are controlled by the webpub.def):

And the other four are in the middle.

Note under which section of the record display these tokens are placed:

NOTE: If your bibliographic display shows duplicated fields in any one of these areas (say the Full Record), take a look at the <--{recordinfo: [variable fields tags]}--> tokens. Check to see if there are duplicate field group tags in two or more of the tokens, or if there are duplicate tokens with exact same field group tags.

Internet Explorer can sometimes distort the display of bibliographic and attached records. By using the Web Option INSERTTAG_INHEAD, to declare with a <!--[if lte IE 8]> the distortion issue will be resolved.

Resource, course, and program record display are also customizable forms.
