Customizing Search Result Templates
How the Gateway Displays Search
Results
When a user submits a standard search or advanced search from the gateway,
the gateway constructs a search string and filter for the corresponding search
object and queries the Directory Server. The Directory Server responds with
matching entries in the LDAP database. The gateway uses a search result
template to display the entries returned by the Directory Server.
Search Result Tables
Search results are displayed as tabular data. Headings in each result tables
reflect the object attributes identified in the search result template.
For example, the heading row on the search results form for a People search
displays the Name, Phone Number, E-Mail Address, and Title attributes.
