Right before you open the window, this should work
You may need to do some regular expressions in case they put in multiple spaces though.
if (myQuery){
myQuery = myQuery.replace(' ','+');
window.open(myQuery,"newwin");
return false;
}

Seth, you rock! The only problem left is when you enter 2 words in the
form. It looks like this in the url:
http://www.google.com/search?q=hotel Chicago, when it needs to have a +
between the search words. Do you see a good place to parse that into the
search string?

The js code to set MySearcher in the processSearch function looks off:
mySearcher = formObj.tosearch.value;
change to:
mySearcher = formObj.tosearch[formObj.tosearch.selectedIndex].value;
If that did work in IE, I guess IE doesn't require the selectedIndex to
get the selected item in a dropdown.

Subject: Web Search NS Error
I have a search form on a page that uses js (which I didn't write) to
call a new window using whichever search engine was selected. Anyone
have any ideas why it won't work with Netscape 4.7? It calls up a new
window with a 405 error. I may just do it with CF for Nutscrape. Here's
the code:
<script language="javascript">
<!-- shields up!
var isIE = false;
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4) {
if (navigator.appName == "Netscape")
{
} else {
isIE = true;
}
}
/* Begin Kill Nesting */
setTimeout ("changePage()", 3000);
function changePage() {
if (self.parent.frames.length != 0)
self.parent.location=document.location;
}
/* End Kill Nesting */
/*yummy.... Cookies*/
function setCookie(name,value,expires,path,domain,secure){
var curCookie = name + "=" + escape(value) +
((expires) ? "; expires=" + expires.toGMTString() : "") +
((path) ? "; path=" + path : "") +
((domain) ? "; domain=" + domain : "") +
((secure) ? "; secure" : "");
document.cookie = curCookie;
}
function DeleteCookie(name,path,domain){
if(getCookie(name)){
document.cookie = name + "=" +
((path) ? "; path=" + path : "") +
((domain) ? "; domain=" + domain : "") +
"; expires=Thu, 27-Sep-74 12:32:01 GMT";
}
}
function processSearch()
{
formObj = document.internetsearch;
mySearcher = formObj.tosearch.value;
mySearch = formObj.search.value;
var searchSite;
switch (mySearcher)
