Menu
Hey, I am new to this site and rather new to web designing/developing. I am having a problem with my search functionality on a site i’m working on. Every time I click the search button it just goes right back to the same page.. I could spend hours (which I already have) reading into this but I still don’t think I am going to get as far as if I was to ask experienced developers who know HTML coding and CSS. Thanks! Below is the code for the section involving the search function…

</style></form>
<div class=”indent1″>

<a href=”education.html” class=”link-1″><em><b>Dental Ed</b></em></a>
<!–<a href=”sitemap.html” class=”link-1″><em><b>SiteMap</b></em></a><a href=”rss.html” class=”link-1″><em><b>RSS</b></em></a> –>
</div>
<a href=”index.html”><img alt=”” src=”images/logo.gif” /></a><br />
To be honest.. I don’t know where to start.. I have tried turning the search into PHP, ASP.. I did some research and was told to try java script.. I dont want a complicated search engine. I want a functional one.. For anyone that helps. Thank you so much!
