I've seen users request google intergartion for the forums, we I manged to do that, I found a free script, and changed the layout etc to the forum. All the credits remain in the script.

I do know someone else has used the same code but has removed all the credit. ok first you need to get the google api http://www.google.com/apis/

Also there a a 1000 a day limit which google has set, and I believe its only for personal use.

heres the template

create a new template called google_main

HTML Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
$headinclude
<script language="javascript">
function checkform (form) {
  if (form["query"].value == "") {
    alert("Please insert keyword(s) to search for");
    form["query"].focus();
    return false ; }
 return true; }
</script>
</head>
<body>
$header

$navbar

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
	<td colspan="2" class="tcat">Google Search</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td colspan="2" class="alt1">Search Google <form name="googleFrm" method="post" action="google.php" onsubmit="return checkform(this);">
<input type="text" name="query" class="input" value="$query"> &nbsp; 
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Google It" class="button">
<input name="www" type="hidden" value="true">
</form><img src="enhancedbygoogle.gif" width="117" height="19">
</td>
</tr>
$results
</table>

$footer
</body>
</html>

and upload the files google.php and the image file to the main folder

demo http://207.58.180.20/google.php

have fun with the script, tested on vb 3.0.7
