Is it possible? Rather than having the guest have to click 'make a reservation,' can I have the date picker right there in front of them?
Is it a matter of grabbing the code or more involved?
Is anyone doing that already that I could take a peek at it?
(Just saw it on a Think Rez site and I want it.)
 
Yes it's possible. I used to have it on my homepage and I think Hillbilly has the date picker on his homepage.
I think I grabbed the code from Hillbilly's page, but mine didn't look nearly as perfect as his! I can't remember but I'm sure someone will have some help for you.
 
OK I see search box code is available on the "Linking To This Page" section of ResKey/Website Tab/Reservation Pages. You might grab that and paste it into your homepage, and tweak it to your needs.
Search box
Embed the search form in a page on your website. Feel free to modify the code to fit your needs with regard to colors and layout. If you want to use this code with the calendar search view, replace the code '/s|' with '/c|'. The number of guests field is optional...

Wow! His does look good! I will put that on my list for March. (Along with attempting the iframe thingy. Thanks for the step by step.)

I'm guessing that his text for Arrival Date and Departure Date is an image, and the ResKey input boxes just overlie that. It's the best-looking one I've seen.
