I just recently downloaded the Small Business Starter Kit and would like to customize it, does anyone know how to add a search feature to the kit, especially the Items page?

Hi, can you post the code do you want to search on?

I would like to create a search on the entire site, but I only need to search for items on the Items page.  Below is a part of the code from the items page:

<asp:Panel ID="PanelCategories" runat="server" Visible="true">

&nbsp;<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSourceCategories" runat="server" SelectMethod="GetChildCategories"

TypeName="Catalog">

<SelectParameters>

<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="parentCategoryId" QueryStringField="catId" Type="string"

DefaultValue="" />

</SelectParameters>

</asp:ObjectDataSource>

<asp:GridView ID="GridViewCategories" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"

AllowPaging="true" PageSize="10" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSourceCategories" BorderWidth="0"

BorderColor="white">

<Columns>

<asp:TemplateField>

<ItemTemplate>

<asp:Image ID="Image1" CssClass="photo-border photo-float-left" runat="server" Width="90px"

Height="60px" ImageUrl='<%# "images/" + Eval("ImageUrl") %>' AlternateText='<%#Eval("ImageAltText")%>' />

<b>

<%# Eval("Title")%>

</asp:HyperLink>

</b>

<br />

<br />

<br />

<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink5" runat="server" ImageUrl="images/arrow.gif" NavigateUrl='<%# "Items.aspx?catId=" + Eval("id") %>' />

</asp:HyperLink>

<hr />

</ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>

</Columns>

<PagerSettings Mode="NumericFirstLast" Position="TopAndBottom" />

</asp:GridView>

</asp:Panel>

<!-- child items -->

<asp:Panel ID="PanelItems" runat="server" Visible="false">

<hr />

<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSourceItems" runat="server" SelectMethod="GetChildItems"

TypeName="Catalog">

<SelectParameters>

<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="categoryId" QueryStringField="catId" Type="string"

DefaultValue="" />

</SelectParameters>

</asp:ObjectDataSource>

<asp:GridView ID="GridViewItems" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" AllowPaging="true"

PageSize="10" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSourceItems" OnRowCreated="GridViewItems_RowCreated"

BorderWidth="0" BorderColor="white">

<Columns>

<asp:TemplateField>

<ItemTemplate>

<asp:Image ID="Image1" CssClass="photo-border photo-float-left" runat="server" Width="150px"

Height="100px" ImageUrl='<%# "images/" + Eval("ImageUrl") %>' AlternateText='<%# Eval("ImageAltText")%>' />

<h2>

<%# Eval("Title")%>

</asp:HyperLink></h2>

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<img src="images/arrow.gif" alt="arrow" />

</asp:HyperLink>

<hr />

</ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>

</Columns>

<PagerSettings Mode="NumericFirstLast" Position="TopAndBottom" />

</asp:GridView>

</asp:Panel>
