 /*
 
-  ## Sort
+  ## Stringquery
 
-  This will probably be removed in the near future since it only interacts with 
-  the table panel and the table panel already implements all of its functionality.
-  It only interacts with the table panel in any case
+  Broadcasts a query object to other panels
 
   ### Parameters
-  * label ::  The label to stick over the drop down
-  * sort :: An array where the first elemetn is the field to sort on an the second
-            is the direction ('asc' or 'desc')
+  * label ::  The label to stick over the field 
+  * query ::  A string or an array of querys. String if multi is off, array if it is on
+              This should be fixed, it should always be an array even if its only 
+              one element
+  * multi :: Allow input of multiple queries? true/false
+  * multi_arrange :: How to arrange multu query string panels, 'vertical' or 'horizontal'
   ### Group Events
   #### Sends
-  * sort :: An array where the first elemetn is the field to sort on an the second
-            is the direction ('asc' or 'desc')
+  * query :: Always broadcast as an array, even in multi: false
   #### Receives
-  * fields :: An array containing the fields in a table. This will be concat'd + 
-              uniqued with the curent list. 
+  * query :: An array of queries. This is probably needs to be fixed.
