Re: NO Source Code, etc.

> "How can there be NO source code?"

hi becky

oh, it's there, all right -- just scroll down

lotsa white space in source code is often the result of some server-side
process that interprets special code in the page, then removes it, leaving
all that white space where the special code was

for example: cold fusion, asp, php (not sure if the last two leave white
space, i know cold fusion does, or did until the latest release made it
turn-off-able)

as for your first question, "how is the 'seek and you shall find' done?"
i'm not sure what you're referring to, all i saw was a simple search
form -- a field to enter the search string and a Search button

the actual search is carried out by a cgi program on the server, is that
what you mean?

by the way, i tried their search and found the results quite
disappointing -- they are using the open directory project, which is a
human-powered database, it won't have as many entries as databases that get
their contents by spidering...
