Hi

I have found the following code to create a search on my site - this works really well the only problem is in Internet Explorer the search doesn't work when you press the return key.

Does anybody have any ideas?

The search code is below - if anything else is needed please let me know.

$(function() 
{
$(".search_button").click(function() 
{
var search_word = $("#search_box").val();
var dataString = 'search_word='+ search_word;

if(search_word=='')

{
}
else
{
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "searchdata.php",
data: dataString,
cache: false,
beforeSend: function(html) 

{
document.getElementById("insert_search").innerHTML = ''; 
$("#flash").show();
$("#searchword").show();
$(".searchword").html(search_word);
$("#flash").html('<img src="ajax-loader.gif" /> Loading Results...');

},

success: function(html){
$("#insert_search").show();
$("#insert_search").append(html);
$("#flash").hide();

}


});


}
return false;
});
});
