I am trying to find a reference manual that describes all of the
available hidden fields for the webinator/search cgi-bin program.
I've found the following, but I'm not sure their meaning nor if it is
complete:
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="db" VALUE="
www.i-stor.com">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="proximity" VALUE="line">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="suffixproc" VALUE="off">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="thesaurus" VALUE="0">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="defcmd" VALUE="find">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="disp" VALUE="all">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="grsz" VALUE="10">
Is this info online? Where?

The old webinator cgi program is not supported any more. You should
upgrade to version 2.5 .

These values are from Webinator 1. You should consider upgrading
to 2.5. In 2.5 you can get a full list of the fields by looking
at the html form when you click the "OPTIONS" button.
The one additional field not always specified in the form is "db",
and this is the database name.
You can also make new fields up and put them in the script yourself.
To see what a variable does and how it is used within the program,
open the file "~htdocs/webinator/search" in an editor and do a
search for "$varname" (where varname is the name of the variable in
question).
