The
next step is to place a search form on your site. The search
form can be on any page or in the masterborder.

your button. To
access the LinkForm component:
- Select
View > Toolbars > Component Tools
> coolmaps.com extras
 A
small toolbar appears containing coolmaps LinkForm component.

on the "Settings..." button and set the Form Method
to GET (instead of POST)
- Add
a Forms Edit Field and set its name in the palette to "keys"
(without the double quotes)
- Drop
the LinkForm component on to the page
- In
the LinkForm palette, select the results page (the page
