I have tried to put a search box into my site: www.reccomended.co.uk but it
will not work even with the extensions. My ISP, Webfusion says that FP2003 is
not compatible with their service, too modern? they only support upto FP2002.
ANY IDEAS how I can get around this?
Thanks

Their advice is not correct. Frontpage 2003 uses the FP 2002 extensions.
Any FP webbot feature like the search will work with the FP2002 extensions.
For the search to work I think the host needs to turn on the "indexing"
service on their servers.
 
According to http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=www.reccomended.co.uk
-your site is on a Windows 2003 server
Windows 2003 server don't support WAIS search and will not support Index Catalog if your host does not want to run Index Server
(many don't)

Plus According to http://www.reccomended.co.uk/_vti_inf.html your site/host are not running the FP SE
- required for any run time tools
