Try to add a name attribute to the submit button like:

<input type="submit" name="submitted" value="Search Customer">

Inside the DTML method you must check if the 'submitted' variable is set:

<dtml-if submitted>
  Form has been submitted
.....

<dtml-else>

    <form action=....>

   </form>

</dtml-if>
