FP2003 Search function

[Peter]

I included from the drop down menu the Search function webbot. Problems
include:

1.) Each consequtive search displays the results gathered by all prior
searches.
How can prior search results be cleared?

2.) The search a folder option does nothing. That is, the search always
searches across the entire site.
How can I specify that the search should search only the specified
folder -- as the documentation states it will?

3.) The Reset button does nothing.
How can I make the Reset button actually clear?

Thanks very much!

1) Clear the search form before adding new data - seeing the page will
help solve this problem

2) Requires IIS server with Index Service running, and the web and search
configured to use Index Service.

3) The reset button does what it says - it resets the form to the
condition it was in when the form or page loaded.
This means:
If the form was empty when loaded, the reset button will clear it
If the form fields contained any content when the page opened, the reset
button will clear any new content your user types in, and replace the
original content.

Thank you for responding.

Depressing the Reset button has no effect... it does not do anything
whatsoever. It does not clear either the box of the previous search word nor
any results. IIS server with Index Service is running and the web and search
is configured to use Index Service.

Since it does not function on my sites, How can I remove the Reset button
from the form? That is, How can I prevent it from showing?

Thank you again.

It does not clear either the box of the previous search word nor any

results.

It is not supposed to do that. When the page loads the search field may or
may not have text in it, depending on whether it has loaded as a new page
or with results from a search. The reset button will restore the search
field to whatever was in it when the page loaded. It will never clear any
results - that requires reloading the search page.

I need to remove the Reset button. How do I remove it?

You cannot remove the reset button.
