I am intending to use ZenCart in catalogue mode, will be installing it in a sub folder domain.com/products but would like to have a search box on the main site pages which are static html/php (whichever will be needed to make this work).

What I would like is that if someone wants to do a product search using keywords, then the normal search page will be returned.

So put simply. I would like a remote search box, on the same site, but on pages in the root folder, while the installation of Zc is in a sub folder.

is there an easy way to do this, or is it (as I think) a fairly simple coding task for a php dude?

Thanks
