Tag Cloud searching functionality added

The functionality for "Tag-cloud searching" for ELOGeo keywords is now added on the ELOGeo homepage (http://elogeo.nottingham.ac.uk ). The keywords are clickable and takes the user to the repository searching for the clicked word. It is also dynamic, i.e. keywords and their weights are bound to the ELOGeo database by running a script. Thanks to Jeremy for his suggestions. You need to have Flash player installed. Thanks to http://www.tag-cloud.de/

New collection arrangement

After a logical/conceptual review, the new structure of categories and collections in the ELOGeo has been organized as follows.
