Dan,
 
    Very good research.  My site does use Cascading Style sheets which I didnt know resulted in the "lock up" problem.  I will see what I can do to maybe change that.  Also, the do and get messages are filtered via a "noise" file (attached).  Since the search engine does free text querys it may return alot of garbage if I were to allow those queries.  I am hoping to find a solution for the problem as it will also give an error if you try to search for some of the symbol characters such as "?".  Obviously, that poses problems that are not easily resolved.  I appreciate the input and will try to investigate what I can to make it better.

Hey Paul,

Really cool...a couple of us have tried it out and it's a great addition for the community.

Some comments...First, I'm running Windows NT...some terms like "do" and "get" result in errors (possibly because they turn up to many results?).  Also, when clicking on the tips, I get an error message, which then locks up my browser (Netscape 4.7).  Even after killing my browser and re-opening, it is still locked up.  I have to manually go into the task manager and kill a remaining open netscape.exe in order to run my browser again.  I believe this problem is due to use of cascading style sheets, but I'm no expert (not even an amateur), so I'll let you track it down.  FWIW, we duplicated the same problems on other machines in the office.

Regards,

Dan

p.s. you can share this message and a reply with the list if you think there would be added value. I figured I'd leave it to your discretion in case these comments are useless.
