Ben,

Thanks!   That is what I am looking for.   I’ll try to adapt what you have done.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** Re: Widgets on web for searching 
evergreen catalog?

We have one that lets the user choose between searching our website or the 
library catalog. It was pretty easy to set up, and would be easier if you 
didn't give folks the choice to search the website. We made it very simple by 
making it always do a keyword search and always search our scope. We then 
provided a link called "advanced search" for folks that wanted more options. 
You can see it at http://forbeslibrary.org/

All –

Has anyone created a “widget” or a separate mini search box for their catalog 
on any of their web pages?   Is there standard widget code someplace?   Could 
someone send me some examples?

Something like this which we used on our Libguides for our old catalog:

[cid:image001.jpg@01D02A8F.88DF2640]


We used a search form with html for the above:

<form 
action="http://libcat.asburyseminary.edu/uhtbin/cgisirsi/x/0/0/57/5/?user_id=ACWEB";
 method="post" name="searchform" target="_blank">
<input name="user_id" type="hidden" value="userid" /> <input name="password" 
type="hidden" value="password" />
<input name="library" type="hidden" value="ALL" />
<input name="sort_by" type="hidden" value="ANY" />
<input name="relevance" type="hidden" value="off" />
<b><font size="3">Find Books:</font></b><br />&nbsp; <label for="searchdata1">
<input id="searchdata1" maxlength="255" name="searchdata1" size="15" 
type="text" /> </label>
<label for="srchfield1"> <select id="srchfield1" name="srchfield1">

<input class="searchbutton" type="submit" value="Search" /><br />

Library</option>
<option value="KENTUCKY">KY Libraries</option><option value="ATS">Seminary

<option value="FLORIDA">FL Libraries</option> </select></form>

  Anyone have any ideas / suggestions / thoughts for how to make this work for 
Evergreen?   Or is there code out there that is better / nicer / cleaner?

Thanks!
