embedded search box

Post by marbuki@juno.com »

Hi:
I am attempting to embed a search box as part of a drop down menu item. With the code below, it fails to show in IE7. It shows in FireFox 2.0, but it does not go to the page that the URL points it to (instead the current page refreshes). Can you see where my code is faulty?
Thanks,
Doug

aI("text=`<form method=get action=15Search/Search/Search.aspx name=zoom_query><table><tr><td>Search Site</td><tr><td><input name=q size=11> <input type=submit value=GO></td></tr></table></form>`;type=form;");

Hi Andy:
A temporary beta site has been set up to view the source code and output at: http://asp.helpmewithbiblestudy.org/. When you view this URL, mouseover "search." IE7 will not show the dropdown menu; FF2 will show the dropdown menu but will not navigate to the pointed page which should have the URL of http://asp.helpmewithbiblestudy.org/15S ... earch.aspx

Thanks for your help,
Doug

Hi,

What you have there on your site is a form inside a form. Something that Microsoft Internet Explorer is having trouble with.

Firefox seems OK and this is ironinc because the main FORM looks like its something to do with .NET

Are you doing a postback type thingy?

I've seen this before when MS puts a form on the page and this causes all sorts of problems.
