+All but the last of these approaches require programming to a greater or lesser
extent. Against this backdrop, we introduced
[MKWS (the MasterKey Widget Set)](http://mkws.indexdata.com/)
-- a set of simple, very high-level HTML+CSS+JavaScript
Widgets that do not have a team specified (as in the examples above)
are placed in the team called `AUTO`.
-Old and new-style class-names
------------------------------
-
-**NOTE.** Versions of MKWS before v1.0 used camel-case class-names:
-without hyphens and with second and subsequent words capitalised. So
-instead of `mkws-search`, it used to be `mkwsSearch`. And the classes
-used to specify team names used an `mkwsTeam_` prefix (with an
-underscore). So instead of `mkws-team-foo`, it used to be
-`mkwsTeam_foo`.

-The 1.x series of MKWS releases recognise these old-style class-names
-as well as the canonical ones, as a facility for backwards
-compatibility. However, **these old class-names are deprecated, and
-support will be removed in v2.0**. Existing applications that use them
-should be upgraded to the new-style class names as soon as convenient.

Configuring widgets
===================
lang_options: [ "en", "da" ]
lang: "da",
sort_default: "title",
- query_width: 60
};
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mkws.indexdata.com/mkws-complete.js"></script>
This configuration restricts the set of available UI languages English
and Danish (omitting German), sets the default to Danish (rather than
-the English), initially sorts search results by title rather than
-relevance (though as always this can be changed in the UI) and makes
-the search box a bit wider than the default.

The full set of supported configuration settings is described in the
reference guide below.
Proxy). Set this to connect to a service on a different host from the
default.
-query_width _search_ int 50 The width of the query box, in characters.
-
-responsive_design_width _global_ int If defined, then the facets display moves between two locations as the
- screen-width varies. The specified number is the threshhold width, in
- pixels, at which the facets move between their two locations. The `switch`
- and `lang` widgets also disappear entirely below this threshhold.
-
scan_all_nodes _global_ bool false An internal setting that changes how MKWS scans the HTML documen to discover
widgets. If set to true, a different approach is used which may be faster
under some circumstances.
than raw Pazpar2. An authentication phase is run during initialisation.

-(Perhaps we should get rid of the `show_lang`, `show_perpage`,
-`show_sort` and `show_switch` configuration settings, as we display the relevant menus
-only when their containers are provided -- e.g. an `mkws-lang` element
-for the language menu. But for now we retain these, as an easier route
-to lightly customise the display than by providing a full HTML
-structure.)
+The `show_lang`, `show_perpage`, `show_sort` and `show_switch` configuration settings are technically redundant, as the relevant
+widgets, like all widgets, are displayed only when they are provided. But they are retained as an easier route to lightly
+customise the display than by providing a full HTML structure.
### Notes
### Indirect settings
+The values of any setting are generally interpreted literally. However, it is possible to specify a value indirectly -- for
+example, by reference to a query parameter -- and this is often useful in contexts such as specifying an autosearch query. FIXME
