Back to your question, are you trying to search within a particular threadvia this form?

YES. one thread is like a intro thread. the other thread is almost like a database.
you can look thru it normally but I rahther users to use this. NOW I made a post and put HTML into the thread. so that is how its up there. so I cant us variables but I know where I want to search. so that is why I am not sure if put in the right code. I honestly dont know what "$threadid" is I assumed it was the Thread ID wich is what I posted in the code. I also dont know what "$session[sessionhash]" is... I assumed it had to do with cookies... I assumed it was the URL of the thread.

Try this:

<form action="search.php" method="post">
<div class="smallfont"><input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" /><input type="hidden" name="searchthread" value="1" /><input type="hidden" name="showposts" value="1" /><input type="hidden" name="threadid" value="361" /><strong>search for a video</strong>:<br />
<input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="20" style="width:175px" />$gobutton<br />
</div>
</form>
