I want to use the search webparts for my NewForm. (SharePoint 2013)

I want to search title from a list on the same sharepoint. Where can I type in the URL of the list?

Is it possible to view the search results on the same form? Normally when having the search box the results open in a new site and the information typed in the NewForm are lost.. Thanks for your help!

Are you trying to use a Nintex Form in placement of a list's New Form?

No I want to use the default NewForm with webparts.

That wouldn't be a good practice to add webparts to a new form. Previously it was a common practice to add data view web parts to forms using sharepoint designer, but not the best means of customization. 

But any ability to add webparts to a form will be through SharePoint Designer.
