Forgive me, but if people want to search the
web, they'd go to a
search engine directly as opopsed to going round all the houses.
Anyway as to the drop down menu, it may be possible but the different engines have different names and different URLs and ways of doing things. So it'll probably be too complicated.

No need to be so pedantic, Neil.
The reason I wanted it was
mostly for personal use.
A sort of self-made Internet "start page".
