<p>
This is an example of a map-based search interface.
It includes all the client side behaviour needed for
a search system.
<p>
To let you see it working before you have set up a
search system on your server, we have
provided file containing a set of "search results".
Because they come from a file, these obviously will not
reflect your search criteria --- the selected area or the
chosen range of letters.
<p>
The `Which Results' selector can be used to select between two fixed
sets of "search results", a random scattering of results or a CGI search engine.
The tutorial gives more details of how to use them.
