I already defined a perfectly working formatting for my needs. All I  
need now is the ability to get search results formatted using  
feeds.php with my own action. Perhaps I make a mistake, but I have the  
impression, that I have to pass over the search query (or results?) to  
feeds.php in some way, i.e. combining the search with feeds.php.

I therefor thought that I had to write my wn recipe that calls the  
respective funtions in feeds.php and pagelist.php manually.

Am I on the right track here?

Thanks!

Martin
