Sorry, drag the frmget link to your personal toolbar in Mozilla. That's all you have to do. If you don't use that toolbar, you can right-click the link and do a bookmark from there. Now, go to the page you want to search from. Click the link in your toolbar (or from bookmarks) and you'll get a js alert telling you it changed x number of forms. Do your search and the results page will be bookmarkable. If that's still Greek, scoll up the page on the link above and there briefer instructions. Todd Todd
