Built-In Functions

The SE_ShowExcel() function can be examined to see how the capability is implemented. It depends on the following built-in functions:

GetResultsComponent();

This function retrieves the container for the OWC component.

ShowResultsComponent(display);

Shows the OWC component container and hides the results table when 'display' is true. Shows the results table and hides the OWC component container when false.

GetResultsTable();

This function retrieves the standard results table so that the data can be copied into the OWC component.

This process can only extract the results that are displayed on a single iConsole search results page. Therefore you typically override the default page size (25 results) by modifying the page_size attribute of the <results> element. To ensure that all results are captured, set page_size to be the same as the MaximumResultsSetSize registry value on the application server. (This registry value specifies the maximum number of results returnable by an iConsole search and defaults to 1000; see the Platform Deployment Guide for details).

Note: Setting page_size to a large value has a negative impact on search performance. Long search result pages take longer to display and can cause a time-out.
