Why my search button must be clicked?
I have put up the search form on the html.pl so users can type the keyword on the mainpage instead of going to the search page, but why the user has to click on the "search" button to proceed to search? When the user type in the keyword and hit the enter, then the script produces "unknown command", can anyone help me.

I appriciate it very much.

Because clicking the "Search" button sends a command to the script to tell it what to do. If you don't want to click the search button, you have to have another way of sending the command.

Add the following to your form:

<input type="hidden" name="view_records" value="1">
