results per page (optional): Number of results to be displayed per page. If the field is empty, all results will be displayed on one page. 

open new window (optional): Here you can select that a new window is opened to display the search results. Otherwise the results are returned on the search page. 

template (optional): Here you can enter HTML code in order to override the standard search form layout and define the search form elements individually. Be sure to use the following two substitute symbols, so that the search page functions properly: 

search_input_field for the name of the search input field.
###search_input_action:ARTICLE_ID### for the name of the form action, where ARTICLE_ID is the identification number of the article.


Use as transmission method method="post".
Put the value="" in the search input field, if you
would like for the search word/s to appear on the result page with the query appearing
again in the search input field.

For example, a template could look like this:
<form action="index.php?aid=7" method="post">
<input type="text" name="search_input_field" size="10"
maxlength="250" value="" style="font:
normal 11px/11px sans-serif; border: solid 1px #94A4BF;
background: #727A89; padding: 2px; color: #FFCC00;">
<input type="submit" value="Go" style="font-size:10px;">
</form>
input (optional): Here you can determine what descriptive words appear before the
search input field. If you leave this field empty, nothing appears before the search input field. 

button text (optional): Here you can determine what word/s appear on the button to
initiate the search. If this field empty, "search" will be used by default.

be shown as the heading, for example 1-10
