Search Tool for FP Website

J

Does anyone know where i can find the coding for a Goolge toolbar to search
within my website? Ive tried copying code from other sites and from Google
and entering it within a webpage but im getting errors back.

The tags im expecting to see are: <input type="hidden" name="advancedSearch"
value="">
But what im getting back in the code is: &lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot;
name=&quot;advancedSearch&quot; value=&quot;&quot;&gt;

The webpage is basically one huge table and the code is going within one
cell. Am i just putting the code in the wrong place or am i not seeing
something that is blinding obvious?

Thanking you in Advance

Paste the code into Notepad first, then into your FP Page in HTML/Code view.

In the cell where you want the search box type XXXXXXX and highlight the
Xs
Switch to Code View, if the XXXXX is not highlighted look for them and
highlight.
Paste in the code to replace the XXXXXXX.

I've tried both suggestions to this and have gotten a little further but
still not getting the results we want. We have a google search box with
options to search either the entire web or just our site. Whatever option we
select we get the same result, a google search page is opened and we have to
the reselect our option and search again before getting the desired result.

Any ideas where we're going wrong or would it help if i posted the coding up
here that we are using?

Cheers

Unless you can provide a URL to the page with the problem, then you will need to paste the code in a
reply.

http://www.floydautomatic.co.uk is where the problem lies. The code is
within the dwt so appears on every page of the site. The coding is as
follows:
<TABLE id="table417"

WIDTH="359"><tr><td width="112">
<img border="0" src="images/google.jpg" width="100"
height="41">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
</td>
<td><FORM method=GET action="http://www.google.co.uk/search">
<input type=hidden name=domains value="http://www.floydautomatic.co.uk">
<input type=hidden name=ie value=UTF-8>
<input type=hidden name=oe value=UTF-8>
<INPUT TYPE=text name=q size=31 maxlength=255 value="">
<INPUT type=submit name=btnG VALUE="Search">
<font size=-1>
<br><input type=radio name=sitesearch1 value="V1"> www
<input type=radio name=sitesearch value="V1" checked> floydautomatic.co.uk
<br>
</font>
</td></tr></TABLE>
