    return search results on same page

    Hi guys,
    I'm struggling with this much longer than I think I need to, I guess
    you could help me here:
    How do I make the results of a search display on the same page as the
    search, sort of beneath the 'submit' button? Thanks for helping out.

    Regards,
    Ire

      The target of the form is the same page. You check the page to see if data
      was submitted to it and display the results when necessary.

      In other words, you reuse the same page.

      Anything more than that involves client side scripting.

          Does this make sense:
          "The search page is a results page with 0 results (or: no query).
          The results page is the same page, only with more than 0 results."

              Yeah, it does. It means that when the user first hits the page, it
              performs an empty search.

              Not the best architecture in the world, but if it works it works.

                  It performs "no query" the first time the page loads.

                  It was sort of a hint that the results and the search are in the same file,
                  not that it searches every time the page loads...
