Information

This applet was first designed as a search function to go on my own personal website and is still there. My initial idea was just to build an applet to search the popular engine Google (hence I named the class called 'SearchGooee' as seen in the applet code above), but then thought, why..? For example

Q: What difference is this compared to just going to Google direct and searching from there?
A: None.

It was at this point I had the idea to incorporate a number of search engines and put them in a dropdown list (JComboBox). The result is what can be seen above.

If there are any search engines that you use which haven't been included, please contact me and let me know.
