Would it be possible to link to a specific search result from the WF search engine?

Replace KEYWORD with the term you want to show results for. For example:

Thanks Chris. I should've been able to figure that out myself. But I wonder why when you do the search, the keyword isn't automatically added to the URL. Oh well, it's not a big deal. Thanks again.

That's because the form on that page uses the http post method, which hides the form data from the url. (when the data is in the url it's the http get method). The post method is usually better because it's more flexible, but the as you've demonstrated, the get method is the one you need for a clickable url.

Hmm... that will either have enlightened you or confused you. hehehe.

Ah well.... hope it was useful.
