[MOBY-dev] the Search function on biomoby.org

[Twigger Simon]

Hi Frank,

I tweaked the style sheet for the search results so now the headers  
are in the same blue as the other links and if you mouse over they go  
a little darker and have an underline - same as the other links on  
the page. Hopefully this should make things a little easier to  
follow, let me know what you think.

Cheers,

	Simon.
