I would like to know the code / trick to add the other popular search engines to my nomatch.html page. So when a user cant find the information in my directory, he/she clicks on the popular search engine it will search using the unfound result from our own directory. Several search engines do that , just wondering how to implement it. If someone can show me the exact code would be great.

The easiest would probably be to add links pointing to the other search engines with the keywords embedded into the link. Here's a link to Google.com as an example:

<a
href="http://www.google.com/search?q=%%keywords%%">Google.com</a>

You will need to view the page source of the search pages of other search engines to find out what the URL to the search script of other search engines would be. You will also need to supply the name of the search box (q in the example above) to which the keywords are passed on with.
