External Search?

What I want to do is put a search bar on my homepage, Its not part of vbulletin so when I try to search it gives me

Code:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid.



If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

This is the code I Tried, I cannot find how to do the Security token

Code:

<form action="http://*****.com/forums/search.php?do=process" method="post">

<input name="do" value="process" type="hidden">

<input name="quicksearch" value="1" type="hidden">

<input name="childforums" value="1" type="hidden">

<input name="exactname" value="1" type="hidden">

<input name="s" value="" type="hidden">

<input name="securitytoken" value="http://*****.com/forums/$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" type="hidden">

<div><input class="bginput" name="query" size="25" tabindex="1001" type="text"><input class="button" value="Go" tabindex="1004" type="submit"></div>

</form>

I Looked around the forum its probably here but I cannot find it. Any help please?

If that code isn't in a template then maybe try just taking out the <input name="securitytoken".... line altogether.

Still does not work,

Anything else? Any other ideas like iFrame either?

Oh...maybe take out the <input name="s"... line as well? I think that's another name for the security token. I think it should work without one if you have cookies enabled.

Still same error message,

Tried removing both lines also and same message too,

I've searched and found this:

Code:

http://www.yoursite.com/forum/search.php?do=process&query=searchword

But I don't know how to work it into a form like

Code:

<form action="http://www.yoursite.com/forum/search.php?do=process&query=searchword" method="post">

<input name="do" value="process" type="hidden">

<input name="quicksearch" value="1" type="hidden">

<input name="childforums" value="1" type="hidden">

<input name="exactname" value="1" type="hidden">

<div><input class="bginput" name="query" size="25" tabindex="1001" type="text"><input class="button" value="Go" tabindex="1004" type="submit"></div>

</form>

I've tried that code but it just goes to

Code:

http://www.yoursite.com/forum/search.php?do=process&query=searchword

Any ideas about this either?

Do you want to search within your forum or externally?

I basically want to do this.

I've created a homepage (NOT VBULLETIN)

I Have a search bar on that, I Want to make that search to forum!

Does that make sense enough?

In that case wouldn't it be easier to just create a google custom search? you can assign it to only search your site :)
