@Dan Gillean I don't know how the Finding aid template is going to correctly format custom LODs (e.g. box), as it looks like the formatting is hardcoded by LOD. :(

David you are correct that both @level and @otherlevel need to be used. I'll copy the definition of both attributes below for reference.

I don't know what our XSLT looks like currently or if this is possible, but could we perhaps use an <xsl:if> or <xsl:choose> statement, to say:

IF the @level value IS otherlevel
THEN use the otherlevel value as the level

See:

If that's not possible (or beyond the scope of what we can do now), then I guess we'll just leave this ticket as-is for now. It's not a super high priority, just a nice to have I was hoping would be easy to knock off.

@LEVEL in EAD 2002:

LEVEL -- The hierarchical level of the materials being described by the element. This attribute is available in <archdesc>, where the highest level of material represented in the finding aid must be declared (e.g., collection, fonds, record group), and in <c> and <c01-12> (e.g., subgroup, series, file). If none of the values in the semi-closed list are appropriate, the value "otherlevel" may be chosen and the term specified in the OTHERLEVEL attribute. Values are:

• collection
• fonds
• class
• recordgrp
• series
• subfonds
• subgrp
• subseries
• file
• item
• otherlevel

@OTHERLEVEL in EAD 2002:

OTHERLEVEL -- The hierarchical level of the materials described in <archdesc>, <c>, <c01-12>, and <archdescgrp> can be specified when the semi-closed list in the LEVEL attribute (e.g., collection, fonds, series, etc.) does not contain an appropriate term. Set LEVEL to "otherlevel" and then supply the preferred term in the OTHERLEVEL attribute.

Mike, I think the change you made caused the "item" description level of description to disappear - as the item LOD value will be represented by the "@level" attribute (and no @otherlevel attribute is set).

The fact that the "Box test" description shows up with formatting like the series level descriptions I assume is due to the finding aid formatting being hard-coded to certain levels of description, i.e. because the "Box test" is not an file or item level description it does not show up in the file/box list table.

I'm not sure why the blank file/item table row is being displayed - maybe that is keyed on position of the description in the hierarchy instead of LOD?

I've updated this PR with, hopefully, a fix.

I've updated the PR... let me know what you think!
