Orkun -> Changing Search Button (6/20/2009 5:24:10)

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to change the search button picture , under the "web components" menu?
Or is there any way to put search engine to website, with different styles?




Thomas Brunt -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/20/2009 8:15:13)

You can't change it to an image, but you can style the submit button in an external style sheet.




Orkun -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/22/2009 3:44:53)

Is that component for searching all the web?
Or is it for searching my own web site content?




Thomas Brunt -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/22/2009 8:44:31)

The frontpage search bot searches the site.




Orkun -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/22/2009 9:31:34)

May you let me know little more information about how to style "search button"?




Thomas Brunt -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/22/2009 9:43:02)

Here is some info on that.

I will work on it...
Thanks for now...!




Orkun -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/23/2009 3:47:45)

Thomas, again i need further help about this....

1. I understand that using different html codes would change the look of buttons...but, i could not understand what order those codes have to be!
f.e, this code : <input type="submit"> , is working, i'm able to get the button...but i could not understand the code : #el01 {width:100%} /* Width */ , and how to use it...

also in here, http://www.webreference.com/programming/css_stylish/ , are some samples about the buttons...but again i could not understand how to use those code...when i copy and paste those codes, same words seem in preview...

2. actually, i am trying to style search and reset button of web search component which is formed by this code : <!--webbot bot="Search" S-Index="All" S-Fields S-Text="Search for:" I-Size="20" S-Submit="Start Search" S-Clear="Reset" S-TimestampFormat="%d.%m.%Y" TAG="BODY" -->
if i have to use additional codes to style the buttons, how can i associate new codes with this webbot code?

sorry for asking lot..
thanks...

I'm currently not at a computer wtih FrontPage installed. Can you post the url of a page with that search bot? I want to look at the source code.




Orkun -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/23/2009 8:46:07)

Its not published yet...
i have copied whole page codes to a notepad file and sent it to you as pm...




Thomas Brunt -> RE: Changing Search Button (6/23/2009 8:56:17)

It's been a while since I have worked with that bot. I had forgotten that it doesn't write html to the page. I'm now remembering that I tried and searched long and hard for a way to customize that bot, and I was never able to.

Sorry for the previous misleading post!

You might want to use a google site search instead. That's easy to customize.

Just replace "yourdomain.com" with the actual domain of your site.

<form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search">

<input type="text" name="q" size="31"
maxlength="255" value="" />
<input type="submit" value="Google Search" />
<input type="hidden" name="sitesearch"
value="yourdomain.com" checked />
</form>

i see...that is also working...
but we would not want our customers find our competitor companies' webpages as a sponsor of google, when they are searching something in our website.[;)]

I will try to find another solution...
Thanks a lot for your effort...

You can customize the Google search engine so that it only shows your website search hits, but that feature is not free.
