Sometimes this is the only solution.  A while back you yourself forced me to
make a fix at my end for something I still believe should be fixed at the

make a lame post.

I'm referring to the pause set search that I and many others believe should • be
available directly on every page.  My personal fix (suggested by someone • here)
was to make a local html page with the search box so it loads much faster • than
the one with the useless matches from the news articles.  Then I added this
page to the Netscape toolbar.  I had to do this both at home and at work.
And it's still not as good as a pause search box on every page.  But hey,
I'm flexible.

Actually, he did provide a workaround on the server end.

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

I use it all the time.  In fact, that is the link *I* use to access
Lugnet via the web.

Yeah, but it uses frames.  I hate frames.  I tried the power user link but
then I couldn't save any bookmarks.  They all come out with the poweruser link.
I suppose I could have asked for more help with the bookmarks but I didn't
want to annoy anybody with more whining.  I'm not sure why I did it now.  I
guess I just wanted to defend JW since he helped me out once.

I'll be quiet now.  Sorry.

Don
