Using query strings to access search

Post by isginc »

Our current help system in our software allowed us to search on the helpfile with query strings from inside the program. Basically there is a "Search Help" box in the menu system of our software and it would search our documentation based on what they searched for.

Is there a way that we can search our web based doc-to-help help file through just a URL using query strings to pass the search terms to our doc-to-help website?

Something like: https://website.com/index.html?search=true&value=Search Words
