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:

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">
<option value="GENERAL^SUBJECT^^^words or phrase">Keyword</option><option value="AU^AUTHOR^^Author Processing^author">Author</option>
<option value="TI^TITLE^^Title Processing^title">Title</option>
<option value="SU^SUBJECT^^^subject">Subject</option>
<option value="SER^SERIES^^Title Processing^series">Series</option>
<option value="PER^PERTITLE^^Title Processing^periodical title">Periodical Title</option> </select> </label>
<input class="searchbutton" type="submit" value="Search" /><br />
<b><font size="3">Library:&nbsp;</font></b> <select name="library">
<option value="ALL">ALL</option><option selected="selected" value="AC">Kinlaw Library</option>
<option value="KENTUCKY">KY Libraries</option><option value="ATS">Seminary Libraries</option>
<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!

Jennifer
