this seem pretty cool... what seems handy is someone can just type anything in the url field like if they are performing a regular search, saves you a step from having to find the search link/button.

Cool Job! thx
*installed & working* :)

Personally I love the idea. I already do something similar with my FAQ...

I just don't think too many people use it :)

Very nice hack, just like php.net works. Thanks :)

On my board, it cuts off the first letter of the search term. If I put in http://www.eaforums.com/forums/frog, it searches for rog.

I have not modified your code any.

Nice hack. ;)

I have 2 questions...

1- Does anybody have a good list of robots to include in the 404.php file

2- I have a search engine indexer installed. what will this do to spiders that are excluded from that?

I can't seem to get this to work. I get a page cannot be displayed error. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Hello all. I'm really sorry that I haven't said a single thing on this thread in so long, but in the past two months, my life has been hell. Sitting down at a computer for more than 10 minutes has been unheard of. I will shortly (2 or 3 days) be releasing version 1.0, with a few things fixed. Amykhar's problem I've encountered, and I realized what's wrong, but I haven't looked into Boofo's problem.

Now, for some reason IE will not follow 404 redirects for my domain. It will for a different domain on the same host. Opera will. Who knows....

EDIT: Should the config be in the file, or via ACP? Putting it in the ACP involves actually integrating the hack, while in the file doesn't. I personally prefer hacks to lay on top of, not be part of a base system, so I would go with in the file. What's everyone elses' opinion?

Yet again,
Mike B

V 1.0 is out :)

Fixed AmyKhar's problem, can't figure out what Boofo's is...

Is there a demo of this anywhere? I would love to see it in action :)
