This search won't work if you select the 'both' button.

I am thinking google has changed something?Can it be fixed or is this being done to stop everyone from using google in this way?

Ya, it works here, except for when you try to put Google in a frame. They no longer allow that. Nothing you can really do about it either, unless you want to use PHP to copy the page, remove whatever code is on it that makes it do that and then present that copy of the page in your frameset.

Oh, and Google may have that blocked as well.

I was afraid that it was not fixable.

I was hoping a javascript work around was available.

Thanks John
