Customzing Customer Search Bar Results

[jontaco]

I am working on customizing a search bar for my customers.

Here is the page where you will find the search bar on the left side above the navigation bar:
http://mulberrystreetgifts.com/store/TEST_2011Spring.php

However, I performed a test search as a customer would, and noticed something missing.

If I were a customer and I did a product search, but my search returned nothing, I would want to know that right away.
However, my current search engine does not show anything if I perform a search for a product that does not exist. This needs to be explicit.

If you do a search for something random, like "yyyyyyyyyy", the results page does not say something explicit, like "Your search returned no results".
I have seen this feature added in Demo Shopsite WebSites, but I have not found how to add it on my own.

Does anyone know how to add an explicit statement, like "Your Search Returned No Results"?

Thanks

Here is the code from the basicsearch.sst that displays the search results and if no results are found the message the merchant configured for no results.
======================================
<table border="0" cellpadding="3" width="100%" id="search_results">
[-- VAR.pa_search_result "false" --]
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
[-- LOOP SEARCH --]

[-- SEARCHRESULT --]

[-- VAR.pa_search_result "true" --]
[-- END_LOOP SEARCH--]
</td>
</tr>
[-- IF VAR.pa_search_result "false" --]
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" colspan="3">[-- STORE.88 --] [-- SEARCHSTRING --]</td>
</tr>
[-- END_IF --]

[-- IF VAR.Quantityproduct "yes" --]
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
[-- Store.QuantityPricingFlag --] [-- Store.QuantityPricingMsg --]
</td>
</tr>
[-- END_IF --]

[-- IF VAR.Variableproduct "yes" --]
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
[-- Store.VariablePricingFlag --] [-- Store.VariablePricingMsg --]
</td>
</tr>
[-- END_IF --]
</table>
======================================

The code [-- VAR.pa_search_result "false" --] sets a variable to tell if any products were found for the search
In the [-- Loop Search --] section the [-- VAR.pa_search_result "true" --] sets the variable to true meaning that some search result was found.
After the loop has finished this code
[-- IF VAR.pa_search_result "false" --]
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" colspan="3">[-- STORE.88 --] [-- SEARCHSTRING --]</td>
</tr>
[-- END_IF --]

outputs the text indicating that there were no search results for the word that was searched for.
