Customizable search forms
I am trying to use the $$search form to get a customizable webform to do searches on my Notes db.
I just inserted all items of the standard simple search form and some html stuff , but all my searches give a failure : Item not found execption.
I noticed that the form action in the standard searchform is like this :
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/ins/test/0331ibra
Results are being displayed OK
The customizable gets a DOMINO_FORM with following action :
<FORM METHOD=post ACTION="/ins/test/0331ibra
I noticed the CreateDocument command ; what's the use of it ?
Should i do some additional things to make it work ?
There's very little help in the help db on this subject.
I use Notes 4.6

Forgot some detail, the $$Search form in the search site would contain a field called $$Return, that is the one which builds the search query and directs the search results. This particular form needs some modifications to fit the searchview command, here is the technote which describes it:

In previous case, the document will searchview with the parameters in the search document, it will not create any document.
If you have the search site database take a look at web search simple form.
