Hi everyone
I’ve been trying to find a multiple search engine script and have come across this 1 below but can’t seem to get it to work.
When I select to search say yahoo for the term auto, the url displayed is http://mydomain.com/multisearch.php?=&%24key=auto.
I obviously know hardly any php but have been playing around with it but with no successs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Brad
