Hi Sean,

This doesn't work, at least not for the word "wise." When I type it in and hit the search button, I get a notice "Displaying 1 - 10 out of 406 entries." However, only three entries are displayed, only two with actual quotes. The second of these is Bosworth/Toller, page b0014, entry 14 dealing with King Ælfred "the wise." After this, there is a reference to, but no entry for, Bosworth/Toller, page b0014, entry 15. Next comes Bosworth/Toller, page b0014, entry 16 "æl-fremd." After this, one lands on Bosworth/Toller, page b0014, entry 17, about Ælfric of Canterbury, famous for his wisdom, but this is incidental, and the next many entries make no mention of wisdom or use of the word "wise."

There is no navigation bar with page numbers.
