I want to place a second search box on the home page that will allow a customer to search by SKU only. So, if a customer types: "12345" (without quotes) in this second search box, the search will only look for that exact value in the SKU field.

In other words, a search for keyword 12345, would return search results that include only the product with SKU 12345 and not the product with SKU 123456. Nor would it return a product with 12345 in any of the other fields such as description, manufacturer, etc.


I have already added:

<INPUT type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_productcode]" value="Y">

to: customer/search.tpl, which allows the customer to find a product based on a SKU however doing this just adds the SKU to the fields that will be searched. That's okay, but I want a second search box that will allow the customer to search on the SKU only.

I've searched forums extensively for this exact feature but to no avail. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
