How Do I Install a "SEARCH" button for my web site



User: Andre G. 10 years ago
Hi Guys,

I might have asked this before but I am no closer to a answer. How would I install a "search" button on my web site.
I have the option of google search but I can not install this on a professional paying clients web site. On the other hand I can not find any host or service making a site search possible.

May I ask why everweb does not have a search button when most other wysiwyg editor do have ??

To search a site, it has to be indexed first.

Even when using Google search, the site has to be index to find anything.

Use this code :

<style>

form input {font-size:1.000em;}

</style>
<form class="searchbox" action="http://www.google.com/search" method="get" onsubmit="Gsitesearch(this)">
<input name="q" type="hidden">
<input name="qfront" type="text" placeholder="Search this site">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
var domainroot="www.yourdomain.com";
function Gsitesearch(curobj){
curobj.q.value="site:"+domainroot+" "+curobj.qfront.value;
}
</script>

Or use an application :

And what's wrong with a Google search field? Don't your clients want to be found?

Here is an article with 3 ways. When searching for alternatives, enter internal search engine and you should get a bunch. There are positives and negatives, read up on what you can do and what they do
