GenericRequestUnknown.html.txt
This allows the patron to select the Document Type which might be a DVD or CD for example. When the patron submits the request, it will replace book with the Document Type the patron chose. Also, add the formname GenericRequestUnknown to the WebValidation table and decide what to add for the Required fields.
