Google custom forum search
Could you setup up and post a link sticky to google custom search for this site? I've found it really helps by searching specifically this site and gets rid of a lot of the same noob questions (which I have many) threads. It generally works better then most if not all forum search functions on different forums I'm a member of.

I made it : here it is
Here is a direct link to the custom search anyone can use , searches only this forum.
http://www.google.com/cse/home?cx=00...89:e40bf_puaiw
Here is the script , if the admin's want to use it . I built it logged into my google account so it may have to be changed but it's as easy as typing "google custom search" and hitting enter and following the directions .
Paste this code in the page where you'd like the Custom Search element to appear. Note: For the most cross-browser compatibility, it is recommended that your HTML pages use a supported doctype such as <!DOCTYPE html>. CSS hover effects require a supported doctype.
<div id="cse-search-form" style="width: 100%;">Loading</div>
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load('search', '1', {language : 'en', style : google.loader.themes.V2_DEFAULT});
google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
var customSearchOptions = {}; var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl(
'002976042147210985289:e40bf_puaiw', customSearchOptions);
customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search .Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);
var options = new google.search.DrawOptions();
options.enableSearchboxOnly("http://www.google.com/cse?cx=002976042147210985289:e40bf_puaiw", null, true);
customSearchControl.draw('cse-search-form', options);
}, true);
</script>
<style type="text/css">
input.gsc-input, .gsc-input-box, .gsc-input-box-hover, .gsc-input-box-focus {
border-color: #D9D9D9;
}
input.gsc-search-button, input.gsc-search-button:hover, input.gsc-search-button:focus {
border-color: #2F5BB7;
background-color: #357AE8;
background-image: none;
filter: none;
}</style>
