Hi David,

it is not possible to customize the control.
What you could do is to create a custom control derived from this control
and overload the Render method.
Here you are able to consume the response stream of the parent and could
parse and modify it.

Cheers,
Stefan.

Thanks Stephan,
....is the source code available - or some equivalent sample code? This would make it easy to modify.

Hi David,

yes there is "similar" code that shows how to override the render method of
a placeholder control.
So if you only need a starter for this part of the problem, check out this
code:

protected override void Render(System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter output)
{
TextWriter tempWriter = new StringWriter();
base.Render(new System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(tempWriter));

string orightml= tempWriter.ToString();

string newhtml = ModifyTheHtmlStream(orightml);

output.Write(newhtml);
}


Cheers,
Stefan.

Stefan,
That's funny! I was thinking more along the lines of code that shows how to query the Sharepoint server and return the search results ;)

I don't really like the idea of parsing HTML strings!
