I added the script to my home portal (PHPBB) and search worked fine.
When I would log out - then log in, I would be directed to the search.php

I could not login due to a conflict with my script:

<form action="/zoomsearch/search.php" id="searchform"><font face="Arial" size="2">District II Search Engine </font></span><input name="zoom_query" id="zoom_query" type="text" size="17" value="" /> <input name="" type="submit" value="SEARCH" class="button" />


I believe the conflict is due to the value=SEARCH... Since there is another search function on the same page.

However, it could be a result of "submit" .. I have not been able to figure out what is the conflict.

Any one have any suggestions?

Can you give us a URL to the page in question? Hard to tell if the form is conflicting with anything without seeing the site.

The "value=SEARCH" should not be an issue (unless you have some Javascript looking for that value). But make sure you have closed the form properly (with a </form>) before the start of the next form on the same page (with the other submit button).

Hi Ray,

Sure my URL is: http://www.amadistrictii.org

The location I want to place the script is below the top-center of the page below where it says, "Need support on the District II web site? CONTACT District II Webmaster"

Thanks!
Doug

OK, there shouldn't be any conflict from what I can see - I think it is what I said before, you must have been missing a </form> tag in your HTML, and the browser thought your login box was part of the search form. ie: make sure you have the following:

<form action="/zoomsearch/search.php" id="searchform"><font face="Arial" size="2">District II Search Engine </font></span><input name="zoom_query" id="zoom_query" type="text" size="17" value="" /> <input name="" type="submit" value="SEARCH" class="button" />
</form>
