<form action="{U_SEARCH}" method="post" id="search">
				<fieldset>
					<input name="keywords" id="keywords" type="text" maxlength="128" title="{L_SEARCH_KEYWORDS}" class="inputbox search" value="<!-- IF SEARCH_WORDS-->{SEARCH_WORDS}<!-- ELSE -->{L_SEARCH_MINI}<!-- ENDIF -->" onclick="if(this.value=='{LA_SEARCH_MINI}')this.value='';" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='{LA_SEARCH_MINI}';" />

    <input type="hidden" name="cof" value="FORID:9" />
    <input type="hidden" name="ie" value="UTF-8" />
    <input type="text" class="inputbox search" name="q" maxlength="128" value="<!-- IF SEARCH_WORDS-->{SEARCH_WORDS}<!-- ELSE -->{L_SEARCH_MINI}<!-- ENDIF -->" onclick="if(this.value=='{LA_SEARCH_MINI}')this.value='';" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='{LA_SEARCH_MINI}';" /><br />
  <a href="{U_SEARCH}" title="{L_SEARCH_ADV_EXPLAIN}">{L_SEARCH_ADV}</a> {S_SEARCH_HIDDEN_FIELDS}
  </fieldset>
</form>

In the above code there is 3 things you need to edit so your own adsense code will be used.
Change your domain name in this:

Code: Select all

<form action="http://www.your_domain.com/googlesearch.php" id="cse-search-box">

Change to the code generated by google here:

Code: Select all

<input type="hidden" name="cx" value="partner-pub-3346231937490093:rf17b3yseht" />

The same here:

Code: Select all

<input type="hidden" name="cof" value="FORID:9" />

Open the included template file and insert your search result code

Save, upload and refresh template
