zoom -> search box (4/14/2006 19:53:39)

i would like to place a search box on my site so the visitors can search the site for an item.

How do i go about this.

Thanks
Lisa

Hi Lisa

You can add a javascript to do the job.

See some here:

(or type in google free javascript)

Good luck

Cal

The problem with js is when visitors have it switched off.

I use a php script which was free but isn't any more and is unfortunately a pricey item now but very good. You may find similar examples if you go look in www.hotscripts.com under asp or php whichever you need.

I've been using iSearch for a few years and am very happy with the free version - although if anyone needs hand-holding, the Pro version is probably worth every penny.

There are no embedded advertisements in the free version, just a tiny text link saying: "Powered by iSearch" on the results page.

I like the fact that it is highly customisable and has all the features I need or want. The author is constantly improving it too, the latest version 2.15 was released in Feb this year.
