Tweak it(search)

okay im not sure if this is much of a tweak or if it will work but i was looking at the google search thing you have and i just relised that you can make it search anywhere you want i think

Maybe this is common sence but for some it isn't

where ever it says "searchengine" put the name,Lycos,or w/e you choose,...im not sure if this should work but i was just looking at it and thought it up

1. Create a template called forumhome_"searchengine"search, and populate it with these contents:

<tr id="cat">
<td bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="6"><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>Search $hostname</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
<tr><form action="index.php" method="get"><input type="hidden" name="action" value=""searchengine"search">
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" colspan="6"><smallfont>
Search with <font color="#0039b6">G</font> <font color="#c41200">o</font> <font color="#f3c518">o</font> <font color="#0039b6">g</font> <font color=#30a72f>l</font> <font color=#c41200>e</font> on $hostname for: <input type="text" size="20" name="query"> <input type="image" src="{imagesfolder}/go.gif"></smallfont></td></form>
</tr>

(note: if you have removed moderator columns from forumhome, change colspan="6" to colspan="5" (two occurances))

2. In the template forumhome, find:

$pminfo

After that, add:

$"search engine"search

3. Add the following to your phpinclude template:

if (strpos($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], 'index.php') != false)
{
$hostname = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
if ($_GET['action'] == 'googlesearch')
{
$baseurl = 'give the url of the search;
$query = urlencode($_GET['query']);
header("Location: $baseurl$hostname%20$query");
exit;
}
else
{
eval("\$"searchengine"search = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_"searchengine"search'). "\";");
}
}

Done.

You should attach a screenshot and attach the hack in a .txt file
