i'm not sure that's going to help Pitt. your fragment will execute at page
ready time and set the extra parameter "isearch" for subsequent searches to
whatever the _initial_ value of the field happens to be, quite likely an
empty string.

if you want to send in an extra parameter an element's value at the moment
the query is sent then you can use a function:

$("#isearch").autocomplete("search_result.php", {
     extraParams:{isearch: function() { return $("#isearch").val(); }},
     ...

but in this case it will result in queries with both paraneters "q" and
"isearch" set to the same value, which seems rather pointless.
