i can't even begin to imagine the work it takes to keep all the search
interfaces up to the date with any changes the various engines might make.

thank god ie6 doesn't support the non-standard <bgsound> tag.

nope, no childish wav files played in this house.

<tip type="JavaScript" author=".jeff">

got an array and want to see if a particular value is contained in one of
its indexes?  use one of these handy functions:

/*  case sensitive search  */
function ArrayFind(array, value)
{
  var returnValue = -1;
  for(var i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
  {
    if(array[i] == value)
    {
      returnValue = i;
      break;
    }
  }
  return returnValue;
}

/*  case insensitive search  */
function ArrayFindNoCase(array, value)
{
  var returnValue = -1;
  for(var i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
  {
    if(array[i].toLowerCase() == value.toLowerCase())
    {
      returnValue = i;
      break;
    }
  }
  return returnValue;
}
