Search with messy URLs

I seem to be banging my head against a brick wall with this one. I’m working on a site with messy URLs (clean aren’t available) and I would like search results to go to their own section and page template. Simple enough with clean URLs but I simply can’t get it to work with messy. The results keep going to the front-page and using it’s template. Here’s my form code:-

<form method="get" action="<txp:site_url />index.php?s=search">

Am I getting the code wrong somewhere or is this not possible?

Re: Search with messy URLs

So, the form leeds to your frontpage URL?

If so, try:

<form method="get" action="<txp:site_url />">
	<input type="hidden" name="s" value="search" />
	<input type="text" name="q" value="" />
	<button type="submit">Search</button>
</form>
