Paginate on Search Results Page

[Blair5]

On the global results page, it isn't clear to users that there may be more than 50 records returned on a table. We would like to add pagination to the search results page and are investigating effort. There is an FTASK opened with SN, but there is no ETA at this point. What do we need to modify (ui page, macro...) and do you have an example of the script we would need to add for the pagination?

It seems that we will need to modify out of box code - is there any way we can avoid doing this?

Thanks.

You'd have to link to it from somewhere, but if you're not already using Service Portal it may be jarring to use it only for searching.

Ok - one last question. What about putting a message at the top of the search results page? What kind of effort is involved for that?

I think you'd have to use a global ui script for that unless you wanted to hack up the search results pages. It's not a great practice as it would run on every page load and once it's done once people tend to add more and more of them.
