John,

We're just beginning to use webinator at the Three Rivers Free-Net and
we'd like to add some elementary instructions on the first search page
http://trfn.clpgh.org/cgi-bin/texis/webinator/trfn

that would NOT be repeated on the results page.

In the search page script is there any place we could put this?

Thanks,


--Cathy Chaparro

Near the top of the <search> function there's a bit of code that
checks for empty queries. That would be the place to put your instructions.

...
<IF $query eq "" and $mlt eq "">
<IF $submit eq Submit>
Please enter a query.
</IF>

<p>instructions go here.

<ELSE>
