I hope you are all taking advantage of the databases that are on the BLANCHARD-L Web Page at: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~blanch-l/blpref.html Many web masters are installing search engines on their web pages to make it easier for readers to retrieve information. Since our databases are all indexed, such an addition may not be necessary. However, a while ago, I had FreeFind.com index our site but I have not added the HTML to install the search feature. There is no charge to use these search programs, but the downside is that the program owners make their money by displaying ad banners on the searched pages. I would prefer not to have these distractions on our pages. Because the B-L page is part of our benefit as a RootsWeb Sponsor +, we do not have ad banners like those found on the Freepages at RootsWeb. In addition to the search engine, FreeFind provides several other features including a Site Map and a What's New list. Please let me know what you think about this. I believe that RootsWeb has been looking into offering a similar search engine that would be 'banner free' for RW supporters but I haven't seen anything definite. If you know more about this, please let me know. Fletch
