Is there anyway to load the search results into a div in wordpress? I am currently searching a custom post type only and am searching from a small box that pops up in a fancybox. is there anyway to just have the search results load into that same box? iframe maybe?

would I just modify my custom search-xx.php template or could I use jQuery .submit() .. ?? – user4602 Apr 12 '11 at 0:30
@jeffery I think both of thouse are options. It also depends on the fancybox if it allows iframes you may just be able to "refresh" the fancybox content with the results. – BandonRandon Apr 12 '11 at 1:25

If your form is already loaded inside fancybox you can updated it using ajax and simply assign the results to that fancybox instance $.fancybox(ajaxdata);

To get a better understanding take a look at example 5 at this page

Hope this helps.
