Search Apps thru Web - Was Re: Reset Netscape to HomePa

[Dale E. Goodell]

Our intention here is to have the WWW page available on the internet, 
but the access to our CDs will be from our campus only.  I plan to 
designate our CD applications as helper apps within Netscape.  I know 
of another site locally that is in the process of doing something 
similar.  I have had one other request from a fellow list member for 
more information about this, and will contribute more information to 
the list after I have done more work on the project.
