Setting up a Quicksearch Button to EBSCO Full Text Finder
The power of EBSCO’s Full Text Finder can be readily accessed by adding a Quicksearch button at the top of the Searching interface.
Some authors (such as Google) restrict their web pages from inclusion in a Framed page. Including a restricted web page displays only a blank screen.
