I know that many of the people on this forum have wanted xara to create some sort of search widget for websites, now due to many things such as having to index a site and put the results on a server etc etc. it can get complicated. There have been a number of options used, such as of course google's own search widget, but that takes your site visitor to googles search engine, then there are actual software solutions which index your site then you have to upload it to your server and then add lots of code in the head text then some other code in the body text, so on and so forth, and you just end up with a not very good looking search results page.
I was checking out a resource for adobe muse and came across a widget for muse which uses a service which will index your site, store the information on their cloud servers and then give you some short code to paste into your site where you want the search box. The best thing about it is that it opens a pop-up within your site listing the search results, it is amazingly fast and will start to show results on the fly, just type the first letter and the results start to appear. It even has a built in analytics tool to show you what people are searching for and what they click on etc (with the free option it is limited to the last 30 days, but that is good enough).
The best thing is that it is free for anything upto 500 pages, now if you have anywhere more than that many pages then you should not be using xara webdesigner. They have of course implemented it on their site (top right) so you can see how fast it is)
I have seen the widget in action but not had a chance to use it yet so maybe anyone who does will kindly display the results.
