How to use HTML target in Joomla..

[erikleirdal]

I want the result of a search module to end up in another position in my Joomla site.

I've been trying to use a variety of Custom Code HTML Modules.

I've got one module in the left side in my page. The code include a target=, so the result from this module (when clicking Search) should end up in my mainbody-bottom position. I've tried target="mainbody-bottom" offcourse, but the result keep on showing up in the left position.

How can I do this?

The target attribute is used to target other windows, frames or iframes. You can't use it to target a tag.

Thanks for the reply!

Any idea how I can accomplish what I'm trying to do? Any extension out there you are aware of?

You would need to retrieve the search results and then place them with javascript.

Ideally, you would want to retrieve them as JSON formatted data, but you could retrieve raw output.

I know there are several live search extensions - but they have their own display methods. You might look at one of those for inspiration.
