Search Buttons Like Yahoo

[shizzzlee]

Can someone please explian to me how to make search buttons like Yahoo (http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/7240/71260558ll7.png) or give me a link to a site that explains how to do it?

I'm trying make a search that changes what it searches when the user clicks on a certain title. ie. If the user clicks Images, I want it to show up in bold (without reloading the whole page) and then when they click search, I want it to search images.

Web | Images | Video

I think this might be Java+HTML, not sure. Hopefully I put it in the correct category.
Any help is appreciated. :)

Hmm. Bit surprised at Java - maybe javascript would have done the bold thing - so would CSS (and it would be more efficient at doing so). As for the search engine, if you are looking within your own site,I would look at something like Zoom (http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/) (though I am not certain it will cope with video). Constructing your own search engine is quite an undertaking.

Yes I meant Javascript* :)

The site already has the multiple search categories implemented in the form of http://site.com/q?=searchterm, http://site.com/q2?=searchterm, etc. I just want to know how to take all of those categories and combine them into a Yahoo type search.

Your links don't work. Zoom produces a very Google-like search result of a site, if you wish.
