This brings up a thought. DQSD is only 'functional' on Windows right now anyway, has any thought been put into creating a url protocol handler? This would essentially provide access to searches from websites using a syntax like "dqsd://httpinst(example.com/dqsdsearches.xml)" I don't expect everyone to jump at once to write this, but I think it would be a really functional addition. It would, however, further remove it from the potential to function for those that do not have DQSD explicitly installed (like a simple textbox on a webform). OTOH, it would be possible then for people to provide actual DQSD function links on their pages. Regards, Shawn K.
