Code for external search box
Note that the following change will need to be made when we are moved to new servers: in the <form action=...> line, change 'dev' to 'wfsearch'
In <HEAD> section of the page:
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://dev.webfeat.org/clients/cornell/js/cornell.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://dev.webfeat.org/js/wf3library.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://dev.webfeat.org/clients/cornell/js/cornellCustom.js"></script>
Anywhere in the <BODY> you want the form to appear:
<script>
function changeCatName() {
var i = document.wfform.Databases.selectedIndex;
var DBCat = document.wfform.Databases[i].id;
var DBCatNew = DBCat.replace(/&/g,'%26');
document.wfform.catName.value = DBCatNew;
}
</script>
<form action="http://dev.webfeat.org/clients/cornell/cornell_auth.asp"
