hi Alan,
the answer to your question is: yes, you can do what your imagination  
want.
if you are using index_query.html as reference you should put your  
hands on
tools/query/tile_query.php
the code in not well documented but it's where output style is  
defined (lines 251 and >).

we've started to prepare even a simple_hilite.js and  
simple_hilite.php to avoid all data retrieval and focusing only on  
the hilite process but I guess we've not finished this... files are  
in CVS, if you have time to test them I'll be happy to give you some  
help.
it's using the same:
tools/query/tile_query.php

as you've seen we've not yet integrated this in ka-Explorer due to  
incomplete development of that feature.

with Andrea we were looking for some feedback on this function so  
thanks for playing with it.
it seems you are doing a good job and maybe you can help us finishing  
that code.

thanks
Lorenzo
