Hi i have just got the software pro edition and it works great the only question i have is, is it possible to have the search box on every page so when a user types a search it will take them to the search results page rather than just having a search page where the result are displyed on the same page.

basicaly what i am asking is could the search box be set to load a new page with the results in it.

Are you asking for

A - a user enters a query on you page, hits submit, then only the results are displayed (no search button or other fields should be displayed with the results)

or

B - a user enters a query on you page, hits submit, then the results are displayed along with the search button or other fields (this is the default option)

If you want A then,
See page 41 of the 4.1 version documentation.

If you want to see B then,

If you are having trouble with B then you may want to regenerate your search form using Zoom and try again. I had it remove the search buttons and field once because of careless coding on my part (my table tags were messing it up after I edited the search_template.html file)

Broman's right :)
Refer to chapter 5.8 of the Users Guide available at:
http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/usersguide.html

As an example, we have a search box at the top of every page of our own website at:
http://www.wrensoft.com/

You type in a search query, hit enter, and you'll be taken to the search page with the results.
