[Chameleon] Help on extending QueryResults in the Query Widget

[Julien-Samuel Lacroix]

Hi,

To that I can add that in 2.6beta1 it's now possible to have the query 
results inside 2 frames. One with minimal result info and the other with 
the details. To activate this, simply add:
IFRAMENAME="name_of_first_iframe.html"
DETAILIFRAMENAME="name_of_detail_iframe.html"

And control the number of fields viewable by setting the layer header or 
  by using the RESULT_FIELDS_LIMITED metadata field (comma separated 
list of available fields).
