Default Added a wiki searchbox into the search dropdown menu!

As the title states, I just added the wiki searchbox into the search dropdown menu. Now you can search the wiki from right here in the forum.

It works like Google - the button that says "go" takes you straight to the page with that name (like their "I'm feeling lucky" button), and the button that says "search" searches the text of all the pages, so you get a list of all the page results.
I say it works like Google does because Google has a search button and an "I'm feeling lucky" button which works very similar. Their "I'm feeling lucky" button takes you straight to the first result without listing any other results. By typing a word in the searchbox here for the wiki search, and just hitting the return key (without clicking either "go" or "search"), acts as if you clicked the "go" button for an I'm feeling lucky result (takes you straight to any page with that name) (if the page doesn't exist, it reverts and searches the entire wiki). Basically all you should remember out of this is that if you want to do a real broad search, click "search", otherwise just hit "enter" (hit the return key on your keyboard after you type it out, no need to use the mouse...)
Phew! That was a mouthful! But maybe now you will know why you see two buttons, one says "go" and the other says "search".
Anyway, I hope you guys find the wiki searchbox handy here in the forum.
If you find any trouble using it, experience anything that feels odd about it's use (or anything else on this entire site, for that matter!), please let me know!

Yours truly,
Jarred
