-The Facet template has a special feature where you can override it on a
-per-facet basis by adding a dash and the facet name as a suffix eg.
-`facet-subjects` rather than `facet`. (So `class="mkws-template-facet-subjects"`)
-
-You can also explicitly specify a different template for a particular instance
-of a widget by providing the name of your alternative (eg. SpecialPager) as the
-value of the `template` key in the MKWS config object for that widget:
-for example, `<div class="mkws-pager" template="special-pager"/>`.

Message of the day
Some applications might like to open with content in the area that
will subsequently be filled with result-records -- a message of the
day, a welcome message or a help page. This can be done by placing an
-`mkws-motd` division anywhere on the page. It will be moved into the
-`mkws-results` area and initially displayed, but will be hidden when a
-search is made.

Popup results with jQuery UI
the MKWS jQuery plugin:
<div class="mkws-search"></div>
- <div class="mkws-popup" popup_width="1024" popup_height="650" popup_modal="0" popup_autoOpen="0" popup_button="input.mkwsButton">

Authentication and target configuration
