Bill's Notes:
New Draglist "One Box" Search Ready for Testing by Bill Pratt. Brian Clark is hard at work again. I told him the detailed search was great. You can sort the Drag Lists just about any way you want by selecting several fields. But how about ONE BOX where you can put whatever you want in it and let's see what you get? (Sort of like Google). Well, Brian did it and it's ready for Beta testing. Now we need YOU to tell us how it works and what it can do better. Here is the link to the Search page... the new feature is on the top. Enjoy! http://www.digitalwebzone.com/draglist/search.php
