Google search

in this website https://afpakwar.com/blog/
i replaced the default search with google search by firs adding this code to the search form

Code:

<form action=”https://afpakwar.com/blog/search.php&#8221; id=”cse-search-box”>
<div>
<input type=”hidden” name=”cx” value=”002223992351000239049:i2jkdqzjvga” />
<input type=”hidden” name=”cof” value=”FORID:10″ />
<input type=”hidden” name=”ie” value=”UTF-8″ />
<input type=”text” name=”q” size=”18″ />
<input type=”submit” name=”sa” value=”Search” />
</div>
</form>

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.google.com/jsapi”></script&gt;
<script type=”text/javascript”>google.load(“elements”, “1”, {packages: “transliteration”});</script>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.google.com/coop/cse/t13n?form=cse-search-box&t13n_langs=en”></script&gt;

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.google.com/coop/cse/brand?form=cse-search-box&lang=en”></script&gt;

and creating a page template called the search template with this code
Code:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php
/*
Template Name: Search Template
Description: A template for the search page
*/
?>

<div id=”cse-search-results”></div>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
var googleSearchIframeName = “cse-search-results”;
var googleSearchFormName = “cse-search-box”;
var googleSearchFrameWidth = 600;
var googleSearchDomain = “www.google.com”;
var googleSearchPath = “/cse”;
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.google.com/afsonline/show_afs_search.js”></script&gt;

<?php get_footer(); ?>

then i made a page with the search template as template and the path https://afpakwar.com/blog/search

this worked fine and after a little modification i got a page like my other website pages with header footer and side bar

now the problem with this is that now on the side bar’s pages section i had 3 links, home , about, and a useless search link

i wanted to remove this so i tried to make the search page invisible.

finally i have arrived at this solution

i have a search.php in /blog/ of my website with the code in the search template minus the

Code:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Search Template
Description: A template for the search page
*/
?>

this dosent work quite right in the sence that the

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

do not work and this error is dispayed

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /home/afpakwar/public_html/blog/search.php on line 1

by removing these lines however it lookes very ugly

now i could som1 tell me the correct way to get the header footer and sidbar displayed on this page
