How to link to search engine results page?
I have a search script that searches thumbnails and displays the correct results. I.e search for kate moss and it displays all thumbnails with kate moss in the results. I want to add a directory to it, listing all the celebs contained within the search engine. The easiest way to do this would be to link direct to the search results - however I am having trouble determing what the link would actually need to be.....
My website is oldsocks.co.uk
I thought to link to kate moss results it would be something like-
oldsocks.co.uk/search.php?kate moss
Quite clearly it isn't - so if anybody could shed some light on how I can actually link direct to a search result page???
It would help me alot.

it would be this - but that simply displays the search script with the search query in the box - it doesnt bring up any results

well, lol... you have it all hidden -- if you do that, you won't have an url to use.
Generally you test to see if a variable has a value, and if it does, you display something different.
i.e.
<?phpif (!$_POST['cmdsearch']) {
if ($search != '') {
// display the results
} else {
// display the search form
}
} else {
$search = $_POST['cmdsearch'];
// display the results
}
?>
