Search Result Page not found

Report · Dec 29, 2013

Hi

I followed this guide to create a search and search reslut page: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/add-search-form.html

So I created two pages, one with the search box with following code as suggested on tutorial:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <!-- BC_OBNW -->
<head>
<title>searchx</title>
<link href="/StyleSheets/ModuleStyleSheets.css" type="text/css" rel="StyleSheet" />
<script type="text/javascript">var jslang='SV';</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<form name="catsearchform97834" method="post" action="/Default.aspx?SiteSearchID=2556&PageID=/search-results.html">
    <div class="search-box"><input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="CAT_Search" id="CAT_Search" /><input class="cat_button" type="submit" value="Search" /></div>
</form>
<br />
</div>
</body>
</html>

And the serarch page caled search-results.html with following code as suggested in the tutorial:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>search-results</title>
        <meta name="description" />
    </head>
    <body>
        {module_searchresults}
    </body>
</html>

But I am getting the "Page Not Found" error. Both the pages are in the siteroot..

I have replaced PageID={module_oid} with PageID=/search-results.html.

Can someone help me what mistake I might have done?

Thanks

It is a common mistake and one I have made several times.

Change this:

PageID=/search-results.html

to

ID=/search-results.html

An example search action would be:

action="/Default.aspx?SiteSearchID=1234&ID=/search-results.html"

The KB says the following:

Replace the PageID={module_oid} parameter with the path and filename of your results page. Note that PageID becomes just ID in this case.

It is simple to overlook and can be confusing as first.
