Instructions:

You need to use a New Form input:   target

Example 1: This example uses a SELECT Input to give visitors options to choose whether they want to make a Book-search or Web-Search. You can also use RADIO or CHECKBOX inputs depending on your design requirements.

<SELECT NAME="target">
<OPTION VALUE="">Book-Search
<OPTION VALUE= "Target-ID|AccountName|WHERE|Search-MATCH|Search-LEVEL">Web-Search
</SELECT>

Example 2: Using RADIO buttons (Inputs). You can use RADIO or SELECT or CHECKBOX inputs.

<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="target" VALUE= "Target-ID|AccountName|WHERE|Search-MATCH|Search-LEVEL">Web-Search
 
Note: in case of Book-Search you can simply leave the value of Form Input   target   EMPTY.
Example:
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="target" VALUE=""> Book-Search

You can choose ANY INPUT types to add Web-Search with your current Book-Search Form. BUT, you must replace some parameters with their REAL Values as shown below:

Target-ID:
pwwws   if you maintain a Paid Search Engine
fwwws   if you maintain a FREE Search Engine
 
AccountName: Your Search Engine AccountName
 
Please Note that the above two parameters are REQUIRED, other three parameters (marked in orange colors) are optional. You can use the optional parameters to control the web-search behaviour. You can use all or some of the optional parameters, but you MUST NOT change their order. If you do not use any optional parameters, search in Entire web will be carried out.
 
Example:
<input type="radio" name="where" value="pwwws|curryguide">
If yours is a Paid search engine and your search engine AccountName is 'curryguide'. Do NOT ignore the delimiter ( | ) between parameters.
 
Optional parameters:
 
WHERE - Works the same way as Form Input where in your search engine. If you leave it empty, search in Entire Web will be carried out (default). 'brt' will make a UK search, 'europe' will initiate Search with-in European sites etc.
 
Example:
<input type="radio" name="where" value="pwwws|curryguide|brt">
If yours is a Paid search engine, your search engine AccountName is 'curryguide' and you want the search to carried out in UK sites only. Do NOT ignore the delimiter ( | ) between parameters.
 
Search-MATCH - Works the same way as Form Input type in your search engine.
 
Search-LEVEL - Works the same way as Form Input level in your search engine.
