FYI I added a quick search (thanks to Jerry Stratton's perl code, with few small changes) to my monthly archive indexes by adding '<script src="../search.js"></script>' to my rcfile. The javascript writes the search form, reads the current url and sets two of the form values (paths) to direct the search at the current month's archive. This makes the form context sensitive. Source of search.js: document.write("<form name=search method=post action='http://www.psmfc.org/cgi-bin/recfin/search.cgi'>Quick Search:<small> <input type=text name=Term><input type=hidden name=listbase> <input type=hidden name=archive> <input type=hidden name=ListAddress value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'> <input type=hidden name=ListDescription value='Town Wagon Mailing List'> <input type=hidden name=HomePage value='http://www.psmfc.org/~wade/dodge/list'></form></small><hr>"); path=window.location.pathname.split('/'); document.search.listbase.value='~wade/dodge/list/' + path[4]; document.search.archive.value=path[4]; How it works: http://www.psmfc.org/~wade/dodge/list/992/threads.html I still use marc-search to search across all the months from the archive home. -- Wade H.
