The ISINDEX element defines a single-line text input. The label of the input field is specified using the element's PROMPT attribute. ISINDEX is deprecated in HTML 4 in favor of the INPUT element.
When the user presses the enter key within the input field, the input field's text is sent to the server in a query string appended to the document's base URI. The query string takes the form "?text+of+input+field"; spaces are encoded as "+".
