Reproducing the Worm Literature Search Form

Webmasters should feel free to reproduce the Worm Literature Search Form on their own pages. However, watch out for changes. The search restriction ("Find abstracts from:") works by requiring the abstract key (e.g. "cgc1920" or "wbg14.1p42") to match a predefined prefix. Thus, when you click "Last Worm Breeder's Gazette only", only matches whose keys begin "wbg14.1" are returned (as of 11/29/95). "wbg14.1" is in the form. If the form is to continue to retrieve articles from the latest WBG when this button is clicked, the string must be changed whenever a new WBG comes out. "Last worm meeting only" changes for similar reasons. In addition, the form may change because of addition of new features.

The current version of the form is available from the unadvertised URL http://elegans.swmed.edu/wli/wbgforminc.html.
