Maybe I'm overdoing it... It seems to me that qf= text contentType^1000 would do this for me more easily - as it appears to assume the incoming search terms...
However, I'd still like to know the simplest way to reference the search terms in the XML - or possibly get a URL that points the way. Thanks.
