Justins tut is a bit complicated… you do not need to perform a db dump and such stuff. it is much easier:

put this on your front page:

<form action="/search/" method="get" class="myClass">
<input type="text" name="q" value="" size="16" /></form>

it directs search results to section search. use the tags for searches as justin explains.

If you are german, read this

Re: How do I set up Search Section?

Its easy:

1. Setup a section called “search”
2. Create a form called “search” or whatever you want. I have this in my form:
<div id=“searchbar”>
<txp:search_input section=“search” label=”“ button=“Search” size=“12” />
</div>
3. Output the form in the page wherever you want it to appear, like so:
<!— search —>
<txp:output_form form=“search” />

Et voila!
