Writer • Re: Writer HTML Search Box

Is that possible or am I out of luck

It is not possible with plain HTML. I read from your question that there will be several users, on several computers(?) trying to access this information, possibly simultaneously? To get the result you are looking for, you would need to be running a web server on your local network, with a database, some sort of scripting language (PHP, Perl, Python) and a local application written in the scripting language to allow adding data to the database and interrogating it. This solution is unrelated to OpenOffice

Alternatively, you set up a shared database server using Base to add and query information from several computers; this is a possible OpenOffice solution.

Just as a side note, Writer creates terrible HTML; there are dedicated HTML editors that are to be preferred. Right tool for the job and so forth.
