As I said: Fox is noty a search engine.
You don't want to use a Fox form.
But you want a custom search form.
You can use standard input markup for this.
But not any special Fox markup.
Something like this:

(:input form action='{$PageUrl}' method='get':)
(:input hidden action search:)
(:input hidden group TargetGroup :)
(:input hidden fmt #myformat :)
(:input text name=$:streetPTV :)
(:input text name=$:namePTV :)
(:input submit post 'Search' :)
(:input end:)

action search will call pagelist to process the parameters the form
submits. Use hidden fields for hidden parameters.
If a text field is left empty it will not be submitted.
