It searches a domain.

Thanks guys. I understand that it will search a domain, but I'm looking for a way to give people the option to only search the blog, only search the forum, or both. I hope you understand where I'm coming from.

I've followed the steps in the first post and the Google search box definitely replaces the standard search, but for some strange reason it doesn't work correctly.
If I type in a search term and hit Enter the google search doesn't appear, but the page reloads with a new Google search box from which I can then search.
- initially
- after searching and hitting enter
Any advice is appreciated.
Paul
P.S. As I am testing this thing, the domain which Google is searching, as set up in Google adsense, isn't the domain which the forum is installed on. I presume this isn't part of the problem.

that is the problem, you must use the correct code for the exact site you will be using it in, at least i think so, i had that same problem a while back when i was testing this on my localhost!

Thanks for your reply. The funny thing is I've just changed the "Look and feel" option in Google cse to Iframe and it's suddenly working perfectly.
Interesting.

The Google search is working perfectly. Thanks very much for Stoker's Mod. I decided to use it in addition to the forum search instead of replacing it. I decided to position it in the navigation bar. Later I will turn off the search option for guests, but I've left it enabled for this screen shot.
A question: The url of the adsense search is VERY long, but on
http://www.phpbb.com/ it is short and elegant. Any idea what steps need to be taken to get it like the
http://www.phpbb.com/ implementation? Or is that more a question for their forums?
