This is not quite a 'Mod' yet, but I wanted to gauge enthusiasm before I spend the time to convert it to a downloadable mod.

Go to http://www.quad4forums.com and type anything into the search bar in the navbar. Try a car related search, or the word "video" if you want to see a lot of results.

Then, modify your search and watch the results change. Then close the searchbar! You never have to leave the page you are on.

Search system defaults to searching Post Titles (you get way better results that way).

This mod is based on the Ajax Live Search. I can't post a screenshot here at work, but clicking the link and looking is just as easy

If I get some interest, I'll whip up an installer for it, or at least some instructions on how to code it into your vbulletin install.

Most of my mods are like this... I just kinda fiddle until they work good, but I don't end up with a useable install method.

This is similar to the live search I use but I like your implementation.
I would be interested if it can be used on other pages besides forum.
Can you use absolute path to the search script so it shows on other page (home, wiki, etc)

Well, I know that if you 'vbulletinize' a page, you can use it. I've managed to make a template 'vbulletinized' and yet have it show a blank page. This would be what you need to do....

What I meant is that I have the search box showing up on different page of my site (forum, front page, blog, wiki, etc).
The problem with ajax live search I'm using is that it points to a relative path to the forum so the ajax function only work if I have them under /forum.
I think the issue is trivial to fix and the php code should take into account the absolute path, not relative to the forum.

I would be interested in this add-on as well. Could it be includedin the "Search" drop-down, instead of being embedded in the Navbar? And could it be modified to search post content as well as titles?
