Fast Search & Transfer (FAST) announced that the presentation of search results from AlltheWeb.com can be completely customized with the AlltheWeb Alchemist tool. AlltheWeb now allows technically-minded users to create a customized look and feel for web, multimedia, news, and categorized search results from AlltheWeb via user-defined cascading style sheets (CSS). AlltheWeb Alchemist displays web search results in basic HTML code. Searchers can view these results in this basic format, or customize the results view via their own pre-defined CSS file, allowing the user to control virtually all aspects of result presentation for the various search catalogs and other elements on the page. Users can share their design by sending a link to the style-sheets so that their friends may have the same search experience. As this is a beta technology, no formal support from FAST is provided and FAST is not responsible for any style sheets created by third parties. www.alltheweb.com/alchemist
