Hmmm…I can view the source there, but it would take an awful lot of cut and pasting to get it.

Any ideas about a zipped archive?

Got it working (no problem) as per Zem and Mary’s instructions.

I’d like to take this to the next step by replacing the
<code>
<txp:search_input section=“mysection” />
</code>
with my own txp form called search_news.

I’ll use the following in my page template
<code>
<txp:output_form form=“search_news” />
</code>

And my TxP form (saved as Misc) will look like this…
<code>
<div id=“searchbox”>
<form action=”/” method=“get”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“s” value=“search” />
<p><label for=“searchbox”>Search Recent News Articles</label></p>
<input type=“text” name=“q” class=“searchfield” size=“10” />
<input type=“submit” class=“button” value=“Find” />
</form>
</div>
</code>

My question is, where should the [section=“mysection”] go? In my txp form to call my seacrh form or in the search form itself?

This is great. Also is it possible to search links or images? It seems that you can only search articles currently.

Jeff: I don’t believe so (yet, anyway).

Ray: You’d point your form to the section url in question (action="/section-name"), that’s what that section parameter does.

I’m just in the process of typing out how I got it to work. BRB

I thought I had it working but no.

Yes, I understand the section parameter (that was a quick copy and paste… my bad).

OK, here are the tags and forms I using.

Call the search form on the news page
<code><txp:output_form form=“search_input” section=“news” /></code>

The news page article tag
<code><txp:article limit=“5” searchall=0 /></code>

The search_input form
<code>
<form action=”/news” method=“get”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“s” value=“search” />
<label for=“searchbox”>Search News Archives</label>
<input type=“text” name=“q” class=“searchfield” size=“10” />
<input type=“submit” class=“button” value=“Find” />
</form>
</code>

But it AIN’t werkin’! WHAT am i doing wrong here. I want to search the news section only and have the search results show up on a custom page.

You might try

form call
<txp:output_form form="search_input" />

form
<code><form action=”/search” method=“get”>
<label for=“searchbox”>Search News Archives</label>
<input type=“text” name=“q” class=“searchfield” size=“10” />
<input type=“submit” class=“button” value=“Find” />
</form></code>

search page
<code><?php $s = ‘news’; ?>
<txp:article limit=“5” searchall=0 /></code>

Ray · 2005-07-12 01:25:29

I’m outta ideas here. I can not get both a section only search AND custom search results page cooperating.

Mary, Thanks for your input…. but I’m at a stand still here. Can’t figure it out.

But it AIN’t werkin’!
