Hi my name is Jamin Jr. I will be helping you today.

The search link can be found at the top right of the screen. Click on that and it will bring you to the search page.

It is default set on ALL FORUMS to search for what you need. You can click another forum if you only wish to search in one.

In the keyword box on the top right, you type in a word or multiple words of what you wish to locate. Such as "Pissing on Walmart" that would then bring up any topics with pissing or walmart in them.

Its not as simple as just GIVING you an example. They arent just little codelettes.

Depends if you want a junk script, or a good one, and how you want to have it coded.

But you can download a free forum like PHPBB3.0.2 yourself and check out the search code.

That won't work for php, source will only show you meta tags, I think comments? and all html.

or you could go to the search page with firefox, right click and "save page as" which saves the page, all the xml and images attached to that page. etc. puts them in a nice folder.

Save as, webpage complete.

http://s205243569.onlinehome.us/search.rar

there is a rar of both, the actual html page, and a folder of all javascripts, css, etc used on the search page of this very forum. Well commented, because Jamin is an anal bitch ;\)

Anyway, where you see the search function saying the form method = "post" and then directs to a PHP page, simply input the full path to said PHP page right here: http://se7enet.com/forums/ubbthreads.php

see that link? Right click, save link as... now that it's sitting on your desktop, open it in notepad or whatever you look at php in, and adjust accordingly.
