XML Skins and search

I am implementing a site within our livelink in which the pages are XML skinned (using an xsl template). Whilst I have the skinning working on the pages, the customer also wants a search to be attached to the pages (which are held in a folder with subfolders under it). The problem is that I cannot find a way to XML skin the results of the search which means that I cannot add the objAction=XMLExport&scope=one&stylesheet=xsl/style.xsl&transform&requestcontext onto the links and so when a person clicks on the lik they get the default livelink view and not the xml skinned view.
Is there any way of customising the search results?
Thanks
Andy
 
Answering my own questions again, but maybe people can clarify what I found for me. On

It says
The Livelink Search XML API feature provides an open interface for all Livelink search functionality. It enables the output of search results in XML format and allows for the creation of custom skins for the Livelink search interface. In a corporate portal strategy, Livelink search functionality can be embedded in an HTML page outside of Livelink, which can be useful for external search pages.

so it seems I can customise it using XML skinning. However I cannot find any useful infor on the Livelink Search XML API on how to set it up, if it comes as standard or is an optional module

Thanks in advance
Andy
