# Formatting results

The description element in the returned RSS xml can be formatted by setting the URL parameter **sysparm\_format=true** and specifying the format string in the property **glide.rss.description\_format**.

By default, when the URL parameter is present, the description element will be formatted to contain the field label and value using the following format string:

```
<b>{1}</b>: {2}<br/>

```

-   \{0\} - field name
-   \{1\} - field label
-   \{2\} - field value

This default format string can be overridden using the property **glide.rss.description\_format**. An example of the formatted RSS feed can be seen in the following screen capture from Firefox:
