OK go to the top level page you want the search form to appear on, add 
a typo3 template and do something like

page.10 = TEMPLATE
page.10 {
   template = FILE
   template.file = your_template_file_with_###SEARCHSTRING###_on_it.tmpl
   workOnSubpart = DOCUMENT_BODY
   marks {
       SEARCHSTRING = FORM
       SEARCHSTRING.redirect = uid_of_page_to_show_results
       SEARCHSTRING.dataArray {
           10.label = SEARCH
           10.type = sword=input, 15
           10.value =
           20.type = scols=hidden
           20.value = pages.title:tt_content.bodytext
           30.type = stype=hidden
           30.value = LO
           40.type = submit=submit
           40.value = GO
        }
}

This assumes you have:

A	uploaded the appropriate template file with ###SEARCHSTRING### in it 
to somewhere in /fileadmin (not forgetting to put  and  
immediately after the <body> and immediately before the </body> 
respectively of your html template).

B	Made the page "uid_of_page_to_show_results" with a content element of 
the type "Search".

Every page that uses the same set-up (html template, typo3 template) 
and can inherit from the first page with the search form on it will 
also have the search form on it.

Of course you could use TemplaVoila instead to map to a location in 
your html file but perhaps that can wait till you've gained some more 
experience with Typo3.

Expect a long struggle.... but well worth it! Good luck.
