This search form uses the Univesity's Google search engine to provide a drop-down menu with multiple options, allowing the user to decide how broad the search will be:
The code below was used to make the form. You will notice that the q field is a select menu that contains the URLs for the area to search (in this example, the Department of Communication, the College of Liberal Arts, and the UMD home page).
<form action="http://google.umn.edu/search" method="get">
<div><input type="text" name="q" alt="Search terms" title="Search terms" size="25" maxlength="256" />
<input type="submit" name="btnG" value="Search" />
