-- snip --
<form action="http://clusty.com/search";>
  <table>
    <tr>
      <td>
        <img src="http://clusty.com/images/clusty/logo032.png";
alt="Clusty" />
      </td>
      <td>
        <input name="query" />
        <input name="host" type="hidden" value="opensolaris.org" />
        <input name="tb" type="hidden" value="sitesearch-site" />

      <td>
        <input type="submit" value="Search" />
      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
