        I tried that URL several times today to see if I could figure out
what you are asking, and it times out before ever returning anything here.

        Anyway, Lynx does search "lists", so probably what you are really
asking is how hard it would be search form field values, such as in a
SELECT with 609 OPTIONs.

        Very, very hard. :) :)
