Bypassing search results in pages.

[John Reading]

I belong to an association that features a searchable database. The
results are doled out in pages with ten listings per page. I'd like to
bypass this and view the whole or at least larger results. Below is
the HTML code for a search for people with the job title "Director" in
the database:

https://Membership/Membership_directory.cfm?pn=2&qid=7789&rc=1033&ln=&fn=&jt=Director&cn=&cc=

https://Membership/Membership_directory.cfm?pn=3&qid=7789&rc=1033&ln=&fn=&jt=Director&cn=&cc=

To view the whole list, you have to keep clicking on increasing page
numbers (pn=3, 4, 5 etc.).

Is there a way to enter a URL to view the whole list or a larger
portion?

Thanks.

Those aren't URLs that we can use - there's no site called "Membership ".

You should ask the site's webmaster, as Membership_dire ctory.cfm
is a Cold Fusion file, and whether or not it has the ability
to output the requested data in any format other than listing
10 per page, or even output to other formats than HTML(e.g.
output comma-delimited plain text), is up to whomever wrote
the code.

You can sometimes guess at alternatives that might work, such as
using "pn=ALL", or "pn=", or leaving out "pn=".
