That is because it is for Joomla 1.5 whereas the others were for Joomla 1.0.

This part of the forum is for Joomla 1.0 issues.

@ hanleyhansen - You raise your query in the right part of the forum - as the above post says this is for Joomla 1.0!

Hi there I know this post is for 1.5, however, is there a new technique with 2.5 Joomla? None of the above are working for me. It seems the new 2.5 already fixed the component controller mentioned above, and the changing the form in the module to:
Code:
<form action="index.php?option=com_search&view=search" method="post">
doesn't seem to work either.

I found a solution for 2.5 Joomla. You simply create a search page in your menu items (doesn't have to be published) and you use the ID number to place in the search module under "Basic Options > Set ItemID". Here you can control what modules are on that page, or not on that page. :)

I had this problem...and i found my solution is the easiest one mentioned here
here is how i solved this issue:

1-Creat new menu call it "Hidden Menu" .
2-Creat new menu item in the "Hidden Menu" with type "List Search Results",name it "Search", and publish it.
3-In the "Search" menu item created previously, copy its ID .... now go to Joomla search module in module manager and paste the ID in the "Set ItemID" field located in the module Basic Options.
4-taraaaa ........SOLVED ^_^.

ahhh i didn't see ur post till now ..same as my solution... it works also for joomla 1.7 ... but it is better to publish the menu item so that "/component/search/" will not appear in the page URL...this is why i published the item in a Hidden Menu.
