Remarks
The AdvancedSearchBox method renders a search box without radio buttons. However, instead of just redirecting to the Bing site, the helper gets the search results and then formats and displays them in the page.
Locales are specified using a two-part term like "en-US" (English, USA), "en-GB" (English, Great Britain), "es-MX" (Spanish, Mexico), "fr-CA" (French, Canada), and so on. You can find a list by searching the Web for "locale codes."
Examples
