Setting Extended as default option on the search page?

I would like to have the search page default to the Extended option which views the Header and Desciption of the employe instead of the site defaulting the Simple option with just showing all the pictures.

Does anyone know how? =)

Thanks Ted

I thought this would be an easy one =)

i don't like to alter .htaccess too much but its an easy solution to your problem

just add this

RewriteRule ^search.php   search.php?search_result_mode=ext [QSA,L]

in the RewriteRule list and it will work.

Good luck
