I'm building a site with products ids, I need to include a search feature that can find a specific product within the site. I found a template in Dreamweaver that includes the search form. How can I learn how to make it work? Is there any script out there for this? Thank you

Try starting with this article.  As suggested, you will need to use server scripting to accomplish the task you need.
