Add a Search for your UBB on your mainpage!

Well, I got bored and made up a small addon for my mainpage to search the UBB for whatever a user enters... I decided that I'd take and share this with anyone who wants to look at it. It's fairly basic...

6.5 and below:

Code:

<!-- Start BBS Scan -->
<p align="center">
  <form action="http://www.undergroundnews.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi" method="post">
    <input class="formbox" type="text" name="search_words" size="11" maxlength="35" />
    <input type="hidden" name="ubb" value="search_tng" />
    <input type="hidden" name="match_all" value="yes" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_forum" value="ALL" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_in" value="ALL" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_date" value="ALL" /> 

    <input type="submit" value="Scan" class="buttons" />
  </form>

<!-- End BBS Scan -->

6.6 and above:

Code:

<!-- Start BBS Scan -->
<p align="center">
  <form action="http://www.undergroundnews.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi" method="post" />
    <input type="hidden" name="ubb" value="search_tng" />
    <input type="text" name="search_words" size="11" maxlength="35" />
    <input type="hidden" name="match_all" value="no" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_forum" value="1" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_in" value="ALL" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_date" value="ALL" />
    <input type="hidden" name="search_user" size="8" maxlength="8"/>

    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search" />
  </form>

<!-- End BBS Scan -->

As you can see there, it uses all of the search fields from the search page, but their all hidden to process data to scan every page (yeh, I know you don't need all of 'em, but I figure better safe than sorry ya know)...

Any questions, lay 'em on me...

Gizmo Wizard Registered: 01/10/00 Posts: 5354 Loc: Portland, OR, USA	For 6.6 it'd be: Code: <!-- Start BBS Scan --> <p align="center"> <form action="http://www.alforadmin.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi" method="post" /> <input type="hidden" name="ubb" value="search_tng" /> <input type="text" name="search_words" size="11" maxlength="35" /> <input type="hidden" name="match_all" value="no" /> <input type="hidden" name="search_forum" value="ALL" /> <input type="hidden" name="search_in" value="ALL" /> <input type="hidden" name="search_date" value="ALL" /> <input type="hidden" name="search_user" size="8" maxlength="8"/> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search" /> </form> <!-- End BBS Scan --> Note that if you don't have search all forums on you'll need to change: Code: <input type="hidden" name="search_forum" value="ALL" /> to indicate the forum you want to use as Code: value="#" Note also that if you want it to be a dropdown you'll need to set the dropdown code instead of the hidden input...
