This is what opens in address bar when i search for a word
_derived/nortbots.htm
The instructions to add to page are easy and if it is that easy then why
does it not work.
 
The search component requires the server extensions, and the indexing
service (IIS) on the server to be enabled
 
nortbots.htm only appears in four cases:

1) You are testing on a disc-based website, including a FrontPage
disc-based web that is being browsed through a web-server.
2) You are testing on a website that does not have server extensions
installed or running
3) The site (or form page) was FTPed from a disc-based web, or
published using a FTP address for the destination, or published to a
file system destination including a network share or UNC address (like
\\machinename\path\webname). Publish must be to a URL of the form
http://example.com
4) There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this
problem.

It sounds like you are either testing from a disc-based web, or used
FTP to upload the page to a server. The search component will only
work on a FrontPage extended server, and needs to be either created on
the server, or http: published to the server.
