Is there a Search function for a site?

Unfortunately it didn't work either. All it changed was adding WWW in front of the site name, but which oddly gave me no results at all. I think I need the code to specify "intitle:" with the search term. But thanks for finding that alternative code.

Here is the code that you would modify to get Gary's example to work as you need:

<script type="text/javascript">
//Enter domain of site to search.
var domain="http://stanleykubrick.website" //replace this with your site domain


function GoogleSiteSearch(cur){
cur.q.value="site:"+domain+" intitle:"+cur.searchTerm.value
}
</script>


<form action="http://www.google.com/search" method="get" target="_blank" onSubmit="GoogleSiteSearch(this)">
<p><br /> <!--replace [[...]] with your details -->
<input id="searchBox" name="searchTerm" type="text" style="width: 192px" /> <input type="submit" value="?" /></p>
<input name="q" type="hidden" />
</form>

I would probably add a drop-down box to force include specific operators in http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_...reference.html like intitle:, rather that hard-code it.

for those of who prefer Google not to track us too much, I would use;

<script type="text/javascript">
//Enter domain of site to search.
var domain="http://stanleykubrick.website" //replace this with your site domain


function SiteSearch(cur){
cur.q.value="site:"+domain+" intitle:"+cur.searchTerm.value
}
</script>


<form action="http://duckduckgo.com" method="get" target="_blank" onSubmit="SiteSearch(this)">
<p><br /> <!--replace [[...]] with your details -->
<input id="searchBox" name="searchTerm" type="text" style="width: 192px" /> <input type="submit" value="?" /></p>
<input name="q" type="hidden" />
</form>

It worked! Thanks. It pulled up only pages that had the search term in the title. But like a typical newbie, I then realized that people might also search for words not part of the film name, and that I had now excluded everything else. So I ended up going full circle by just using the WD widget for Google search.

Since this is my own fan site, no harm done and the time spent was a learning experience. I actually only do fan-type sites like this for myself, and have never done a site for anyone else besides my wife, since WD makes them simple. I really appreciate the feedback and solution.
