Search Bar Help

[scamron]

Okay, I'm having some trouble with my search bar.

Currently, I have a search bar built into my header (see below)


The bar works fine, but when you enter a query only the URL in the address bar changes.

I want the bar to open up a new page showing the results (just like if you type something into Google).

Any ideas?

Hmm do you have a live website link we can try (to look at the source code for problems)?

Hmm it appears you are missing a form action :

<div id="search"> 
<form method="get" action=""> 
<fieldset><input type="text" name="s" id="search-text" size="15" /><input type="submit" id="search-submit" value="GO" /></fieldset></form></div><!-- end #search --></div>

The form action tells the server what to do with the submitted query.

The search takes me to /?s=SEARCHTERM which is the format for Wordpress only but not necessarily other scripts.
