Adding search functionality
On our Web site we have a search field in the menu frame. When we change our Web site and leave the frames to a table based Web site, we want the search field to work in created documents.

A Notes search field is not possible to use in this case because it will not be editable. I have to use an HTML field, but how do I get the search agent to perform a search and open the search results based on the values in the HTML field?
