Grant ID Lookup Widget

The Grant ID Lookup Widget allows you to verify a research grant ID against the grant information supplied by research funders to ARDC, or alternatively to search for a grant using keywords in the following fields – Title, Researcher, Principal Investigator, Managing Institution, Description and Identifier.

This widget is powered by the Research Activities API and requires jQuery to function.

Grant Searches

By default almost all the searches carried out on the search fields are disjunctive except for the Principal Investigator field which is always conjunctive.

The Boolean operator 'AND' can be used on all disjunctive field searches to narrow down the results e.g. 'red AND sea'. However, when used with the Principal Investigator field the 'AND' operator will be interpreted as a search term. This disjunctive and conjunctive inconsistency in the search fields can lead to confusing search results. All fields will be made disjunctive in a future release. 

Usage

Put the following code snippet into your HTML document between the <head></head> tags.

XML
<script src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.js'></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://researchdata.edu.au/apps/assets/grant_widget/css/grant_widget_v2.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://researchdata.edu.au/apps/assets/grant_widget/css/grant_widget_v2.css" />

And you’re done! Just 3 lines of code! Any input fields on your page which have the class grant_widget will be transformed into a fully-functional Grant id lookup tool.

Demo

Default Settings

This example shows how to embed a Researcher Lookup tool into your webpage.

  • if you don’t know your Grant id, click Search to search for your Grant id profile
  • if you already know your Grant id, put it into the text field and click Lookup instead

 

Custom Settings

Example 1

In this example, we initialise the widget using some custom settings:

  • the labels on the page have been changed (see the JS tab)
  • automatically display the search box when the widget loads
  • a default value for the Grant id has been set in the HTML tab (and this is displayed when the page loads)

Example 2

Another example where we initialise the widget using custom settings (see the JS tab)

  • Enable tooltip of full information on mouseover of the results list
  • Overwrite default funder list to search against
  • Overwrite default search fields to search against

Note: This tooltip feature requires the qtip jquery plugin to be installed to display correctly.

Configuration

You can initialise the plugin by simply adding a class of grant_widget to an input element (demo):

XML
<input type="text" class="grant_widget">

You can also manually trigger the plugin with Javascript:

JAVA
$('input').grant_widget();

In this mode, you can pass the grant_wiget() function any of the following configuration parameters:
