Bug: METASEARRCH default parameter doesn't work

The default parameter in METASEARCH is intended to provide text for use when the search returns no results. However it doesn't work.

The implementation looks for the search returning a result containing just whitespace. However the search uses a template, searchmeta, that may (as in the current case) contain default text so that the search never returns whitespace.

There really ought to be a better way to do this, probably involving changing searchWeb to take a formatting object instead of doing everything in that mega-function.
