HTML - Making My Search Function Work

Unfortunately my website has to work in an offline mode too so no online solution is possible. The javascript engine cchana linked is unfortunately very limited and pretty much useless.

My main navigation bar has a "search" field which doesn't seem to work. I want this thing to search within my own website only. Never done it before, have no clue if it's some html I'm missing, or if I need a javascript for this function to work.
I copied the html for it from another site, but I think there is some other stuff needed in order to make it work.

For example, this scenario:

1. My page contains the text "giraffes in corduroys"
2. somebody googles that text - either as a phrase or just the words
3. google points them to my page
4. the user clicks to go to my page...

Is there any way to determine that it was the text "giraffes in corduroys" which brought them to my page?

Would the crux be getting the previous URL in the browser history?

Hi,

I am wanting to impliment a feature where I can install a search box on my website that will search anothers content.

Basically I have two sites, one has thousands of sound effects on it, the other is more of a portal site. On the portal site I want to add a search box that will link into the other sites database so that the user would navigate away from the portal site and be taken to the stabndard search results page of the main site based on thier queory.

Is there any code that anyone knows of to do this?

Thanks all!

Hi...not sure if this is the proper place to post this or not.

I'm trying to do two things...first:

I'm trying to set up a search box in frame 1 that will search, scroll to and highlight text in frame 2. Is this possible?

I've been searching around for days looking for answers, and have so far come up short.

I managed to create a search box in frame 1 that reloads frame 2, but that's not really what I'm after.

----------------------------

Now for the second thing I'm looking to do (along the same lines):

I want to click a link in frame 1 that scrolls to a target in frame 2 and highlights it. The target is a word in the middle of a paragraph.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm pretty green, so treat me like a beginner.

Thanks so much!

Hi, I want to make a search box on my website. The thing is that I would like the search bar to be able to search on multiple search engines. For example I can type a movie in the search field and then I can select if I want to search for the movie either on google or on IMDb.

I want it to look like this: http://subtext.no/kjartan/charlie/searchbox.png

If anyone could help me get this kind of searchbox it would be great.


Thanks in reaply.

I'm trying to have my search box and search button aligned but I can't seem to get it working. Whenever I try to move one vertically, both of them end up moving and I'm all out of ideas.

Here is the code:

Code:

<script src="http://supportforms.epnet.com/eit/scripts/ebscohostsearch.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<form action="" method="post" onsubmit="return ebscoHostSearchGo(this);"><input id="ebscohostwindow" name="ebscohostwindow" type="hidden" value="1" /> <input id="ebscohosturl" name="ebscohosturl" type="hidden" value="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&amp;site=ehost-live&amp;scope=site&amp;type=1&amp;custid=S6281220&amp;groupid=Main&amp;profid=EDS&amp;mode=bool&amp;cli0=FR&amp;clv0=Y&amp;cli1=RV&amp;clv1=Y&amp;cli2=PT82&amp;clv2=(PT+Academic+Journal+or+PT+Periodical+or+PT+Trade+Publication)%7e(PT+Book+or+PT+Almanac+or+PT+ebook+or+PT+audiobook)%7e(PT+Newspaper+or+PT+NEWSP+or+PT+Newswire+or+PT+WIRES)&amp;lang=en&amp;authtype=guest" /> <input id="ebscohostsearchsrc" name="ebscohostsearchsrc" type="hidden" value="url" /> <input id="ebscohostsearchmode" name="ebscohostsearchmode" type="hidden" value="+" /> <input id="ebscohostkeywords" name="ebscohostkeywords" type="hidden" value="" />

<div style="padding-top: 249px; padding-left: 70px;"><span style="font-weight: bold;" ></span>
<div>
<input id="ebscohostsearchtext" name="ebscohostsearchtext" type="text" size="23" style="font-size: 16pt; padding-right: 340px; height: 50px;">

</form>

I'm using IE8 to test

Hi, I'm trying to add a google search box (in a table) to my web page, but for some reason it the input button links to the page I am currently on. The strange part is that I put the same exact code in another cell right next to the other google search box and that one works wonderfully while the first one still links to the current page. It is the same with any search engine (yahoo, bing, ask), the first search box links to the current page and the rest work great. Here is the code I use:
Code:

                <form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search">
                <input style="width:140px" type="text" name="q" size="31" maxlength="255" value="" /><br />
                <input type="submit" value="Google Search" />
                </form>

I've been working for a long while on this script, and I can't get it to work. I'm mostly doing it to learn, because I stink at HTML and pretty much any scripts.. What I'm basically trying to do is make a page with two screens on at once, like a split browser. Since I have practically no experience in HTML, I still haven't figured out how to make the top bar (address bar) stay no matter what site I am on. Help.. please? Address bar code below, may need some work
Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>

        <title>ItsJareds</title>

<script language="javascript">
<!--//

function findworld(form)
{
server = '<frame src="' + form.server.value + '">'

document.write('<html>')
document.write('<frameset cols=* rows=" frameborder=0 border=0>')
document.write(server)
document.write('</frameset>')
document.write('</html>')
}

//-->
</script>

</head>
<body bgcolor="748269">
<div style="position:fixed">
<form name="worldselector">
<TABLE WIDTH="100%">
<right>
<TR>
<TD valign="middle"><font color="3B5E2B" size="4"><strong>Address: </strong></font></TD>
<TD valign="middle">
<input type="input" name="server" size="40">
<input type="button" value="Load Page" onclick="findworld(this.form)">
</TD>
</TR>
</right>
</table>
</form>

Hello,
I am making a template for a website and now with a lot of updates being done I was hoping to create a template thats based on a table structure with just the center portion to change depending on the link that was pressed to access that page. Can this be done with an HTML script? Basically it is like the forum page here where the top portion stays the same just the portion below changes.

Hi guys,

I am building a site for a new company and they need a page with a form on it that a user can fill out, that gets sent to the company, which they use to send back a quote. So obviously the form will require fields for the users name and other important details.

As for the actual info needed to make the quote, there are three different types of quote (so maybe three different forms would work?)

The forms are as follows:
Marine
Type of boat:
Length:
Height to antifoul line:
Hull:
Material:
Antifoul re-application: (yes/no)
Marina location:

Automotive
Make:
Model:
Year:
Type of strip:
Condition:
Rust:
Blast location:
Home location:

Swimming Pool
Type of pool:
locaton:
Size (m squared):
Depth:
Shape:
Tiled: (yes/no)
Re-paint: (yes/no)
Blast location:

This excel file also shows the forms required: http://www.mediafire.com/?33oxx0zf6tac8ap

I would greatly appreciate it if someone showed me how i can make these forms using HTML.

Thanks

Is there a way to make an image or image map link to 2 different places when clicked?

Thanks in advance

Hi, I made a div into a link by making the "a" tag into a block element. Now that I did that, I added text and images to the div, and now the link only works around the text, but fine over the image. How do I get the link to work over the entire div?
