I finally got the http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GoogleSiteSearch extension to work on my site www.debatrix.org Thanks for the help PM Poon. I checked out your site http://webmasterteachyourself.com/Help:How_to_add_AdSense_for_Search_to_Medi awiki and it looks like you are using the http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Google_Custom_Search_Engine extension. They both appear to do the same thing, but I like GoogleSiteSearch a little better because it uses the original mediawiki search box. Thanks for the help though.
