Experimenting with Exponential i tried the search functionality with a simple example.
just put the search html text in pagelayout.tpl

...
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<form action={"/content/search/"|ezurl} method="get">
<input type="text" size="8" name="SearchText" id="Search" value="" />
<input name="SearchButton" type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>

created an object with a searchable attribute called my site enterd the search string and the result? the same html site as before. no results just the same screen as before the search.
i created the pagelayout file in mysite/design/.
logged in as admin finding objects is successful.

Using Exponential 3.5.

thanx greg
