RE: [WSG] new msn search engine

[Ted Drake]

You got me! I swear I looked at it this morning with the w3 validator and it only had a few errors.  I must have been validating the wrong tab.  It's really strange, when you look at the validation results and compare it to the source code it seems to be looking at two different pages.  those crafty MSN folks. Who knows what is up their sleeves.   I don't know what is going on with my system. I had somehow gotten a cookie to make the beta the default search interface on firefox but IE was showing the original. I like the original, our site has better results :)   So, if you want to see the new standards based version, you need to look for the beta version of their search engine, it isn't normally the defualt.    The CSS could use some work but I do think it is a good step forward.
