Search box error - simple fix but where do i find this code ?

[JJMPSP]

Hi, for some reason i think my theme is messed up and is redirecting users to the wrong url when they search.
Take a look at this.

Not Found

The requested URL / http://jtagxbox360.info/search2/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I know exactly what the problem is, the site just redirects to the wrong url as i said

http://jtagxbox360.info/%20http://jtagxbox360.info/search2/

where as it should be

http://jtagxbox360.info/search2/

Can anyone tell me which file to edit to fix this error ?

[kat]

it's only doing this with that theme, yes? Not the SMF default?


Which theme is it?

[JJMPSP]

yes just this theme.

I know exactly what is wrong, the board gets redirected to the board url + "http://jtagxbox360.info/search2/"
instead of just the board url + "/search2/

Do you know which file to edit so i can fix this ?

Edit: theme is EOTSDZINE C.O.D MW2

I'm just downloading the theme, to have a look at it's files.


I'll get back to you.

[JJMPSP]

alright, thank you very much
Its probably a very simple 2 minute fix

[kat]

Looking at the theme, I doubt it.


First thing to check is index.template.php.


Are these lines the same as in yours?

Code Select Expand

// Show all the relative links, such as help, search, contents, and the like.
   echo '
   <link rel="help" href="', $scripturl, '?action=help" />
   <link rel="search" href="', $scripturl, '?action=search" />
   <link rel="contents" href="', $scripturl, '" />';


and

Code Select Expand

echo '
<div id="searchbox">
    <form action="', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" accept-charset="', $context['character_set'], '">
    <input class="inputbox" type="text" name="search" value="', $txt['search'], '....." onfocus="this.value = \'\';" onblur="if(this.value==\'\') this.value=\'', $txt['search'], '...\';" />';




Have you edited any of the files, yourself, for some reason? (Mods, that kinda thing)

[JJMPSP]

Oh yes i forgot to mention, I have pretty urls mod installed (installed it recently)
I did ask on the support topic but i got a reply from the creator that it was a problem with my board theme.
Will check those files now then report back, thanks.

the first quote of lines is correct, apart from the help option, as i have removed that myself, so thats fine.


The second quote box is totally different though
This is the only thing I can find when i look through index.template.php

<input class="biginput searchbox" type="text" name="search" value="', $txt['search'], '..." onfocus="this.value = \'\';" onblur="if(this.value==\'\') this.value=\'', $txt['search'], '...\';" style="width: 90px;" />
                        <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=search;advanced" title="', $txt['search_advanced'], '"><img id="advsearch" src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/filter.gif" align="middle" alt="', $txt['search_advanced'], '" /></a>';

[JJMPSP]

Edit: i thought it was fixed but its still broken

Pretty urls...


I'm growing to abhor that damned mod. It seems to cause some serious problems, on quite a few sites.


Can I suggest that you post in that mod's support topic, with this?


You can be 99% certain that it's that mod that's causing this problem.

[JJMPSP]

Hi again, sorry I had to leave yesterday.
I did post on the support topic, but they said it was my template or something... I then posted my index file, but got no reply

I will try post this link on the thread right now.

Also, I noticed that the searchbox does redirect correctly when you click on the actual search button.

Thanks for your time mate.

[kat]

That's OK, Chief!


I'm pretty sure it's that mod that's causing the hassles.


I'm afraid that I have no idea how to put things right, though.


Sorry'n'all that.

This isn't a prettyurls issue, i think.
And hat code should in the index.template.php. If you upload in that topic or send me in pm, i wil look it.

[Dannii]

Looks like you have an extra space in your <form action=" ">

[JJMPSP]

thats my  index.template.php file.

And Dannii, where did you find that code ? I will look into it if you tell me where i can find it

Thanks everyone

[Özgür]

Its here.

Code Select Expand

<form class="floatright" action=" ', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" accept-charset="', $context['character_set'], '">
Must be

Code Select Expand

<form class="floatright" action="', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" accept-charset="', $context['character_set'], '">

Your theme using << action=" ', $scripturl, '?action=search2" >> and this action="" has extra spaces.

[JJMPSP]

OMG thank you so much
I really don't know how this happened, I haven't edited this file myself before .....

Thanks to everyone that looked at this

Solved, at last !
