Google Search

Hello,

I'd like to use Google Search on my website. I want to pass search text to the another page that includes Results Only code from Control Panel. How can I get values of _GET or _POST in my pages?

Best Regards.

Re: Google Search

You should be able to reference $_GET and $_POST in your template files just as you would in any PHP script.

Re: Google Search

My search box is in the header file and its name is q. Somehow,  $_GET["q"]  returns null in my search result page. Even the URL of the search result page lost its fragment part ("?q="). Is there anything that I may doing wrong. If I include a page that doesn't exist in action of the search form, fragment is there.

Re: Google Search

If the URL you're getting to from your search form isn't including the GET variables you're either using a POST form or there's some other issue with your form.
