You're welcome. In fact, if you use Mozilla Firefox, there is an add-on that will do that on many websites.

ky331, that was the third try. The first two had a different coding issue that I encounter frequently when posting links and translating in html here. Busy day - no time to fiddle with them.

SSL protocol is good but the only problem is slowing search a bit. SSL protocol reduces speed of surfing the web and its the onlt problem with Google Encrypted Search.
