<form method=GET action="http://kanjidict.stc.cx/">
 <input type=hidden name="inset" value="unihtml">
 <table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr>
  <td width=125>&#26085;&#26412;&#35486;&#25506;&#12377;<br><small>(nihongo sagasu)</small>:
  <td valign=top><input type=text name=s size=20>
  <td valign=top><input type=submit value="Go">
 </tr></table>
</form>
