Topic: Search URL String - How To Email / Save / Link to Search Results ?

Hey All,

Drives me crazy that I can't bookmark search results like:  http://punbb.org/forums/search.php?search_id=876882659

I know I can do this:
http://punbb.org/forums/search.php?acti … and+Upload

But that doesn't give me what I want.

How do I, for example, send someone a search that has these elements:

1)  specific keywords
2)  search only topic subjects
3)  show as topics

I find that I quite often want to point out specific searches to my members but can't find a way to link them to the results.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks Smartys!  Is that documented anywhere or are you just a super coding genius (possibly both!?)

It isn't documented, but you can generate it by looking at the search.php source. All the form elements are submitted as GET, so you can just look at the input field names and their values.
