Default Values for fields on Homepage search applets in Siebel Open UI 8.1.1.11 Patch Set 9

In Siebel 8.1.1.8 one of the client requirements was to have default values for the Homepage Search applets.  I followed the instructions from Doc ID 1056078.1 and it worked.  Now the client has upgraded to 8.1.1.11 patch set 9 and the script in WebApplet_ShowControl no longer works.  It was recommended to create a custom javascript file to handle this requirement in 8.1.1.11.  I should be able to use something like

var processregionvalue = SiebelApp.S_App.GetProfileAttr("Process Region Search")

to grab the stored default value that was used in 8.1.1.8.  My question is how do I bind that value to the control on the applet so that when the user goes to the Account Home Page the Process Region will have the default value?
