Yes you still need <!--TYPO3SEARCH_begin--> and <!--TYPO3SEARCH_end--> 
tags. But if you don't put them in then it indexes the enitre page. For 
this reason it is well worth doing as all your menu items get indexed 
otherwise, providing rather screwy results (I was writing a site for a 
surveying company, and searching 'dry rot' gave hits for every page. And 
so on and so on).
