Thanks. I see now that I was going way off base with my reading of docs 
about mysql and htdig.  

My search works now.  I just needed a link to the generated page.

I am very impressed with this feature as i will be expanding my 
mysql/php usage on the web sites soon.

thanks for the tip.  In this case i do not use '?' in the URL but it is good to 
be reminded of the exclusions in the conf file.
