XML API users using web pages to display results must provide attribution for search results back to Searchhippo. One easy way to do this would be to provide a link back to http://www.searchhippo.com/ with the text "Powered by SearchHippo.com" on all pages you produce that contain a result set from us. Below is sample HTML for producing this:
<CENTER> <A HREF="http://www.searchhippo.com/">Powered by SearchHippo.com</A> </CENTER>

Here is the corresponding DTD:
<!DOCTYPE SEARCHHIPPO [ <!ELEMENT SEARCHHIPPO (RESULTS)> <!ATTLIST SEARCHHIPPO VERSION CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ELEMENT RESULTS (RECORD*)> <!ATTLIST RESULTS COUNT CDATA #REQUIRED HEAD CDATA #IMPLIED TAIL CDATA #IMPLIED NEXTURL CDATA #IMPLIED PREVURL CDATA #IMPLIED> <ELEMENT RECORD (TITLE, DESCR, URL, DISPURL)> <!ATTLIST RECORD NUM CDATA #REQUIRED ID CDATA #REQUIRED> <ELEMENT TITLE (#PCDATA)> <ELEMENT DESCR (#PCDATA)> <!-- URL is the CLICKTHROUGH URL to use in the A HREF="xxxx" HTML --> <ELEMENT URL (#PCDATA)> <!-- DISPURL is the URL to display on the screen to the user only. Use the previous piece for the clickthrough URL!! --> <ELEMENT DISPURL (#PCDATA)> ]>

So, in a nutshell:

• You host the query form.
• You query our servers "behind the scenes"
• You parse the XML document we return to you
• You display your own presentation of the data however you like.
• You do not pay us anything.
• You can start immediately.

While not required, we would appreciate hearing where you integrate this feed (i.e. email us the url!) This can also help us better serve you and keep you informed of updates and changes (particularily to things like the DTD for example)!
