including the MKWS JavaScript** so that when that code is executed it
can refer to the configuration values. So the HTML header looks like
this:
var mkws_config = {

Customisation of MKWS searching widgets can also be achieved by
overriding the styles set in the toolkit's CSS stylesheet. The default

level, this might just mean changing fonts, sizes and colours, but
more fundamental changes are also possible.
The configuration object `mkws_config` may be created before including
the MKWS JavaScript code to modify default behaviour. This structure

### Language specification
Support for another UI language can be added by providing an entry in
-the `mkws_config` hash whose name is `language_` followed by the name
-of the language: for example, `language_Arabic` to support
-Arabic. Then value of this entry must be a hash, mapping the
-English-language strings of the UI into their equivalents in the
-specified language. For example:
+the `mkws_config` object whose name is `language_` followed by the
+name of the language: for example, `language_French` to support
+French. Then value of this entry must be a key-value lookup table,
+mapping the English-language strings of the UI into their equivalents
+in the specified language. For example:
var mkws_config = {
- language_Arabic: {
- "Authors": "الكتاب",
- "Subjects": "المواضيع",
+ language_French: {
+ "Authors": "Auteurs",
+ "Subjects": "Sujets",
// ... and others ...
}
}
This code should be inserted in the page at the position where the
metasearch should occur.
