It looks like whatever editor you were using was trying to substitute 
values that pertain to your site, or perhaps it's ASP (it looks like to 
me).  At any rate, below is the same free Google search that you're trying 
to implement.  Note that you'll have to change the value of "YOUR DOMAIN 
NAME" with the actual name of your website:

<!-- SiteSearch Google -->
<FORM method=GET action="http://www.google.com/search">
<TABLE bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><tr><td>
<A HREF="http://www.google.com/">
<IMG SRC="http://www.google.com/logos/Logo_40wht.gif"
border="0" ALT="Google"></A>
</td>
<td>
<INPUT TYPE=text name=q size=31 maxlength=255 value="">
<INPUT type=submit name=btnG VALUE="Google Search">
<font size=-1>
<input type=hidden name=domains value="YOUR DOMAIN NAME"><br><input 
type=radio name=sitesearch value=""> WWW <input type=radio name=sitesearch 
value="YOUR DOMAIN NAME" checked> YOUR DOMAIN NAME <br>
</font>
</td></tr></TABLE>
</FORM>
<!-- SiteSearch Google -->
