I included a gif with the CVS (dqsd.gif) that the sample code in preferences.js points to. It does not have to use a URL - in fact, unless you've got a permanent internet connection, it's recommended against using a URL since until it refreshes it won't actually be visible. Or, when you say hyperlink - do you mean the image is a link to the dqsd site (that'd be cool, too)? After I get my broadband back (only 5 more days!!!) I'll be able to play with it again, and I'm wanting to make it so the menu button can be replaced with the image as well. Question: Are there any hard-coded specs for the XML structure we're using? If I were to start adding an element for accessory information (like graphic) how would we do that? I don't want to just stuff more tags in there without getting feedback, but if the searches could be extended to provide for a URL to a dqsd-compatible menu graphic, and a 'how to' page for more information about that particular search, that'd be great. I also think individual change logs within the searches should be a consideration - especially for custom/weird searches. Search wizards can automate generating the structure for it, to make it easier for us. I also think it would be nice if a "search template" were included that explained each tag or at least exposed all the 'well-known' tags that we might use. Regards, Shawn K.
