[ANN] Simple Site Search Helper Action

Combine a Simple Site Search search field with an existing form on the same page, without any mucking around with the Multiple Forms Action suite.

Apply Simple Site Search Helper to the pages that contain a search field. If you’ve used a submit button of any kind next to your search field, apply the Simple Site Search Button button to that element. This marks it so the SSSH Action can process it.

Under the hood, this Action removes the name attribute from the SSS fields, and thus makes them invisible to the rest of the page form. It also restores whatever settings you had made in the Page / Form Setup dialog to the page form. So configure your page form however you need to, configure SSS as normal, and then just apply SSSH to the page. The SSS form is submitted by JavaScript instead of a normal form submission, and the regular page form works the way it did before you added the Simple Site Search. Best of both worlds!

No layout changes are needed to support this, the result is one form that does two different things depending on how you submit it.
