Re: [mv] Search Results Problem Mostly Solved



******    message to minivend-users from Ramsey French <rammjet@mindspring.com>     ******

minivend.html did not specify:

[search-region arg="

Adding arg= solved that problem.  And as long as the in-page search works I
can work around my nested frames problem.
