adding search to my internal site

Recommended Posts

Site 1: I want to add a search text field that the user can enter a search and it will popup the results from site 2:

 

Site 2: Is in php/mysql where i perform a post, explode, and count with a query searching the database for the user's entered text.

 

So, on Site 1 I would like to add a search field that will popup the results from Site 2.

 

Does this help?

There's a million ways to write it because there's a million ways to code not just 1 site, but 2.  There's really nothing we can specifically suggest to you without code.

 

Also, Your original post suggests you just wanted to take a feature that's on one site and put it on another.  Now you're saying you want to somehow link the two sites? 

 

Do you even control "site 2?" Because if you control both sites, I don't really see the efficiency in having site 2 do a search query and then turning around and grabbing that info and putting it on site 1.  Why not just have site 1 query site 2's database directly? Or do you not have control over site 2...

 

It sounds to me like you want to look into curl
