[DQSD-Devel] maximized.htm "bug"

[Sarah Sweeney]

Since I was the one who originally reported this, I tried out the fix. I'm not exactly sure if it worked, though, cause I hadn't actually noticed this problem in a while. I thought maybe this was cause I'm using Firebird now instead of IE, so I switched back to test, but the original problem with pages not opening "maximized" wasn't happening, so I can't tell if the fix helped. I did however see that, after applying the fix, maximized.htm was being used whether I performed a search or not, which is what the fix was intended to do. So I've attached defer_tools.js with the fix included for someone to add to the next version, if that's OK. Thanks, Brent!
