You should try:

http://www.lugnet.com/poweruser.cgi

It puts a search bar that stays on the top of the screen..unfortuanately it
uses frames, which causes problems when you go to offsite links.  My biggest
problem with it is that I like to see the URL's and this doesn't allow you to
do that.

Todd, et al...

I use the web interface to LUGNET exclusively.

It is quite common for a posting in the buy-sell-trade, shopping, or auction
group to reference a set number. Most of those references are without a link • to
the PAUSE database (though auctions often have a link to the specific item at
the auction site).

Would it be possible to copy the "set search" field/button (and its underlying
code) from the home page to the top-level pages for these groups?

marketplace
marketplace.shopping
marketplace.buy-sell-trade
marketplace.auction

This would eliminate the need to return to the LUGNET home page to search for • a
set, making the postings (at least as I've usedthem in a web-based format)
easier and more efficient.

Thanks for reading...

(...) I like it.. How about a bit of script that puts the URL of the other frame in the top frame, sort of as a replacement Location: bar? I'm fairly sure this could be done without too much trouble (though I'm not _entirely sure, as I don't like (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) <SNIP> Thanks, Michael - I've changed my LUGNET bookmark to use this link. I do wish the choices after places were in one line, but that's not a major problem. I'll use this and bow out of the discussion, except for: Todd, where would I have (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
