hi
The OPAC display described here is very much the way the "original" (pre-MARC) Koha displayed search results. Proof once again that Chris and Katipo were ahead of their time!
Yep that is how the original Koha works (1.2.3) there is one biblio, with several groups, and then items. (Stupid names, but there ya go :-)
I'm pretty attached to it as a model.
Gotta give some credit here to Olwen as well. Having an old school database programmer on your team sure helps you get a nice normalised database. Which is what the biblio->biblioitems->items split achieved. No redundant data (well minimal). There is no reason this cant still work eg http://photos.bigballofwax.co.nz/gallery/kohaphotos/detail?full=1 The data is all there (this is 2.2.0) just need to tweak the opac templates a bit to get it to display.
