mapping / and ?

hi,

i want to map forward/backward search / and ? to a function.
basically i want to set a variable whenever i search and rest
of the / and ? functionality should be same. how can i do that.
is there any better way to do it rather than mapping /, like
constructor
function being called every time i search.

thanks
