Hi Marcus,
The searches should really contain a description block complete with
usage examples.. otherwise the help menu and the web page descriptions
are empty.
Please consider adding a description block like the ones in the other
searches which contain the css class definitions..
example -
<description>Search the Audubon Society for information about
birds.
<div class="helpboxDescLabels">Examples:</div>
<table class="helpboxDescTable">
<tr><td>adbn woodpecker</td></tr>
<tr><td>adbn cardinal</td></tr>
</table>
</description>
Thanks!
Monty

Even though this XML search will probably load and is a good start
toward a completed search, please be aware that this search will probably
not work as is and will probably require some changes.
