Oops, check that. It does it in PHP, no javascript needed. Originally
it was javascript but I must have changed it before I went senile.

You can use javascript to do the same thing, -just pick-off the
search/query strings with js instead of PHP and make a .js file instead
of a text file with variablized text.
