Hi,
you can also speak English, its okay.

But let's try in German: Du hast ein fertiges Template gekauft in dem bereits das Suchfeld war? Und das möchtest du jetzt mit deiner Suche verknüpfen, die schon existiert?
Schau dir deine vorhandene Suche mal an und schau welche Variable genutzt wird und welche Parameter das form noch hat. Du kannst deinem Textfeld in Flash diese Variable dann zu ordnen und per getURL die Suchadresse aufrufen.

The code is following: I just need the code entered into flash desing(site)

<!-- Simple search form -->
<font face="Tahoma, Verdana" size="2">
<form action="http://search.mydomain.com/index.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="query" value="" size="40" maxlength="255">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="simple">
<a href="http://search.mydomain.com/index.php?type=advanced"><font size=1 color=gray>Advanced Search</font></a>
</form>
</font>
<!-- End search form -->

How can I enter this form into flash. search box.
I have ready made text are and the go button.

and now i need to enter the from into the text area(where you type the search word) and go/search button. how can i do it with flash MX 2004.
i do no know the flash so good.

how can I make the search form to flash search.

Hi,
Flash works completley different, so you can't just alter the html syntax.

You should have a look at the Flash basics in the Flash Help.
To build a form you'll need a Button, a Text Field, and some Action Script (loadVariables or getURL for eg)

If you have any questions feel free to ask, but please don't expect us to build it for you.

well there are different possibilities. take this one for example:

give your textfield the instance name(!) "query", then the button only needs this action (mark button and press F9):

on(release)
{
   getURL("http://search.mydomain.com/index.php?type=simple&query="+query.text);
} 

thats it

thank you, but i can not get this work, the instance name "query" i have entered the query with selecting the text area and pressing F8 and entering the name for it "query". what i am doing wrong? am i entering the "query" to wrong place? again thank you for bringing me so far

That is the name of the symbol and not the instance name. Undo this step and mark the textfield and have a look at the properties -> there u have to enter the used name.
