Hi Craig,

Actually, not going off to another browser tab or window is easy as
pie. Just open or create a search-results tiddler with an iframe and
have the target of the search form be that iframe, e.g.
'target=MyIframeName'.

If you don't care so much about that MainMenu search (yet) you can try
a prototype here...

As for those options... that should be somewhat doable, to show a
popup with the checkboxes in it (instead of showing the checkboxes
permanently) whereas there would be one checkbox to reset all other
ones and once you click on the searchfield or anywhere else, the popup
with the checkboxes would close.

When doing the search one would render the necessary iframes into a
tiddler called "SearchResults" only just to then open (or refresh)
that tiddler.

I don't know if its such a good idea to have multiple searches at
once... since that would also require multiple forms (automagically
running in the background)? So maybe checkboxes are better replaced
with radiobuttons or better still, a dropdown which is also MUCH
easier to implement! ...unless you would know of a good Meta-Search-
Engine that one can feed with a (JSON) string or constructed URL of
sorts in order to search all the sites one wishes to search.

Btw. is there a minimal version of google search - like those on
mobile phones - which one could use to display (only) the results in
iframes? I guess not, since that would undercut all of googles
marketing efforts.

Cheers, Tobias.
