Search form

[Mark Mesarch]

HI,
I can not seem to get the Search Web Component to work on
my website. I have a working area website on a different
computer than my server and I publish to the server. I am
using FP 2002.

I followed the steps in FP Help but there seems to be an
important part missing that the Help says to do. ON the
12 Step where is says "In the Scope of search results
section, select where the search engine should search."
I do not see anything like this. All I see are two major
sections called Results: and Display Options:

It seems that I am not being able to tell the search where
to find the index on the server. ( I have checked the
server and we are indexing the site.)

Any help would be great.
Mark

Howdy.

I suspect that Microsoft Indexing Service isn't available
on your local computer (perhaps because you have a disk-
based Web) but that it *is* available on the remote site.

If this is the case, you may need to open the remote site
directly in FrontPage, open your Web Search page, check
its configuration, and the save it.
