Question

Hi I have a problem. I have a page which will display me a list of items, say for instance colleges. Now once we click a link it gives me some other links like CollegeName, CollegeContact and some other details. Now I want that I have these links common for all the Colleges listed but when clicked should call the respective college details. Since everything is stored as file we can have only one for all college names as CollegeName.txt and so all the colleges will display the same content. Is there any way by which I can make this unique but on the same I don't want to display like CollegeNameOfX or CollegNameOfY on the page I just want to display CollegeName.

Hope I have clearly explained my doubt.

Thanks TMK

Don't fully understand what you want. Maybe anchors may be helpful, i.e. have

• CollegeFoo
• CollegeFoo
• CollegeBar
• CollegeBar

I think you can do this using a WebForm (like on this topic) that classifies a page as being of PageType College or type SomethingElse. Then, for the college pages, which can have any name, do a search (like on AskedQuestions here) that finds only the pages with PageType set to College, and you'll have a clickable list of results.

See TWikiDocumentation for details, and FormattedSearch for more advanced searching - best to get the basic version working first, though.
