TF Sig Search Code
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Emily

The server that had the code for the TF search in the sigs went down and I'm not sure when it will be back up again, so I put it on a different server. If you have the code in your sig, replace it with this code please:
[quote]< form action="http://www.srsyo.org/tfsearch.php" method="get">
< input type="text" name="search"> < input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search!">< /form>[/quote]
Sorry for the inconvenience! :)

What the heck do you do to make the code work?:mad:

Posted by: Emily

Shumway, did you remove the spaces? Sorry, I forgot to mention that you have to do that... Remove the spaces between all the < and the first letters of the tags.

And willsko, you just copy it into your sig and remove the spaces. :)

[color=darkred]Can't we use the search code from the TF search page [url]http://www.tech-forums.net/search.php?s=[/url] ? Or does thatone link to [url]www.srsyo.org,[/url] too.[/color]

When you search from the TF search page, it requires you to fill out more than just the keyword field, even though the other required fields are already set to a default (like Search All Open Forums) that you usually don't change. So if you were to just submit a keyword from a sig search directly to the TF search page, it would give you an error message because it thinks that you submitted a query from the TF search page without filling out all the required fields. The [url]www.srsyo.org/tfsearch.php[/url] script fills in the required fields for you (with the usual defaults, like searching all the forums and all dates) and then redirects you to the TF search page.

Um... that was a really unnecessarily complicated explanation, but basically the tfsearch.php script is just there so that you don't have to put all the required fields in your sig.

I'm no party pooper. :D

Besides, the more of these that pop out the more likely people will see that they have the ability to search the forums before asking the type of question that generally pops up at least fifteen times a day. Or at least we can hope.
