How about a definition for the value of "the_variable"? The allow_in_form attribute establishes a three-way relationship between a CGI input parameter, a cofig attribute, and a template variable. So, when you tell it to use "the_variable" in this way, what happens is an input parameter like... <input type="hidden" name="the_variable" value="myvalue"> will set the config attribute the_variable to the value "myvalue", overriding any value that the_variable may have been given in the config file. Then, in your template files, any use of $(THE_VARIABLE) will get replaced with the current value of the config attribute the_variable, which in this case will be "myvalue" (without the quotes). So, you need to define a value for the_variable, either in your search form or in your config file, or else any use of $(THE_VARIABLE) in your template file will just get an empty string (the value of an attribute that's never set). -- Gilles R.
