Fluffy made the whois add-on hard-coded into a text field. I looked at the source code.
I'm not sure what you mean.
The way whois works is as follows:User types in a name or ID to search for,
Script sends a request for the information to the Whois Server,
Server finds the name or ID in the database,
Server sends the result to the script,
Script displays the result in the Gui.
