How do I define the style of the output from the build in FrontPage search engine?

I am using Frontpage 2000 with all updates installed.

My question is:

How do I define the style of the output from the build in FrontPage search
engine?

When I look in the FP Help I can modify the look of the search user
interface on my web page, but I cannot find anything regarding the
formatting of the output.



The code of my page looks like the following:



<html>

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">

<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">

<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">

<title>Empty page</title>



<link href="../body.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />



</head>



<body>

<center>

<div id="indhold">



<h6>Empty page</h6>



<h2>Table of contents</h2>



<h4>Heading x</h4>



<h5>Heading y</h5>



<p>&nbsp;</p>

<!--webbot bot="Search" S-Index="All" S-Fields S-Text="Search for"
I-Size="20"

S-Submit="Start search" S-Clear="Clear" S-TimestampFormat="%d-%m-%Y"
TAG="BODY" S-Text="Søg efter:" b-useindexserver="0"

-->

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>



</div>

</center>

</body>

</html>



The style sheet controls the current lay out. I am not able to read the text
in the results table. I need to modify the table headings as well as the
results with regards to font color and size.



I hope somebody can help me out on this problem.

Search results are server generated in the same page as the search form
You need to either apply a Theme or style sheet to your page w/ the search form

One way-
Place the search form in a <div>
<div id="srch">
<!--search form goes here-->
</div>
The search results are presented in a table, you can create styles for the
table cells that style the results:
In the <head> of your page
<style type="text/css">
#srch td {font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;}
#srch a {text decoration: none;}
/* etc */
</style>

Thanks a lot, works fine.

Just one more detail.
How do I control the header "Search results" placed over the results table

Search results are generated as tables
- the heading is a table caption tag
You need to define a style for the caption and td/th tags

<style type="text/css">
#srch td {font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;}
#srch th {font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;}
#srch caption {font-family: arial; font-size: 16px;}
#srch a {text decoration: none;}
/* etc */
</style>
