The "search the forums" box, like above

Hello forists.
I'm taking a visual basic course for beginners, and I'm doing a website, but I do not know how to make the "search the forums" box (like the one on the top of this page).
Must I create a program for having a box?
Is there on internet free services of boxes and then I could insert a box in my website?

Thanks a lot.

the search code was not written by anyone here, it came with the forum software

if your're using any kind of web site designer, it might have a search funtionality you can automatically put on the page

What's a forist? Or do you mean florist? We don't appreciate flowers here. :thumb:

To make a web page, first of all, you should know HTML.

A typical box would look something like:

Code:

---

  <input type="text" name="Field">

---

This would of course be placed in a <form>, and you'd need to process that with a server side language such as ASP in your case.
