Add a search control to an ASPX page

[TheJon]

WSS3.0 - Want to add a search control to the main body of a page in addition to the search control in the default master. Don't seem to be able to copy the <SharePointelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="SmallSearchInputBox"/> code into any zones on the main page. Can't find the control in the toolbox in sharepoint designer.

Any ideas?

Jon

This is quite a quiet forum...

Found it. Build a query string to pass the search term from a form field to the /_layouts/searchresults.aspx page.

 /_layouts/searchresults.aspx?k=sandwich%20cheese

where k = the search term and optionally u = the list or library to be searched.

Simple really.
