Search Box

[blimpy]

How do you put a search box on top of all pages on our sites.

I have it as "text" only, and would like to add a box feature, im guessing its easy but dont want to blow up my site

Thanks

When i put this code in the search box appears but

it looks like this

(Search box)--------------------------------------------------- search button

it miles across the page, any way of getting the search beside the box?

Thanks

I think is because of the tables embbed in the code. Just try a smaller code, with no tables, just the form

Search for items:

The best way to make sure you have the correct code and that it will work is to copy the

code from the header.tpl in the new Default templete and paste into you own store templates.

Thanks in advance...

.formbord

}

In the templates you assign a css class as highlighted
