Session state
Important in regards to: Time-out utility Navigating between skins Results page canned links
As far as I can determine, version 7 of the New Books List maintains WebVoyáge session state.
Accomplished via a bit of AJAX code that calls back to WebVoyáge with every New Books List page load.

Voilà
no search term highlighting…

Yes, diacritics are diabolic
A trick question… are these two Unicode characters identical?
e = edecomposed
character“e” + I
precomposedcharacter
“e”
Although the glyphs are identical…
the underlying encodings are not.
Either encoding works withNew Books List keyword searching.
