Attention everyone: I've fixed this widget, since it wasn't working for me either. For the tech-savvy, edit the wow.kon file, change the "onKeyDown" tags to onKeyPress, and add a "SearchString.rejectKeyPress();" to the if block. For the not so tech savvy, get the fixed version here: http://individual.utoronto.ca/dwf/wow-wikipedia-fixed.tgz

Otherwise, it's not a little bad widget. Just that problem was rather debilitating.

Love the size, hate the functionality. It appends a %0A to every request I make, giving me a Bad Title error for every search I try.

Appends my return keystroke "%0A" on the end of all searches, so it always comes up with no result. Worthless.

Doesn't work for me..... seems to add %0A on the end of all the search terms in the URL which then fails!!
