I'm a bit of a newb and I'm just starting to work with Dreamweaver and a couple other programs and I ran into a bit of a snag. I want to put a search on my site (a box in the left side that searches your whole site for that particular thing) Now I'm not sure how to do this or what it entails. Can anyone tell me how to go about this? Thanks!<!--content-->you should be able to search the google for pre made search scripts.<br />

<br />
With this one you just run the application, it indexes your site with a spider, and you upload the index files to your website, and it's up and running. You will need either PHP or ASP (although there's a Javascript option too).<!--content-->I believe <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.freefind.com">http://www.freefind.com</a><!-- m --> offers them.<!--content-->
