Google Search Engine

hiding values

[luffo]

i am trying to add the google local site search to my site but I was wondering if there is any way to hide the "site:www.stanford.edu" from the text box but still having it submitted along with the text.

I have tried seperate text boxes, hidden tags and the only solution i found was to put it lower down in a multi-line text box.

You could try using javascript to add the search parameter to the query entered. When the form is submitted you call a javascript routine to format the input field with any extra parameters you want to add.

Posting URLs in the forums is frowned upon and Brett has warned against including them. Just thought I would mention that to you.

I dont have a code example. Try searching for 'javascript tutorial onsubmit' There are serveral good tutorials that will help you modify input fields using the onsubmit event handler for forms.
