Re: [support] theme search box button next to field

14 Jun 2006

      Hi, thank you for your response!

I tried so many things.  ^.^

I know the code is correct.  It displays correctly in this node:
http://www.animecards.org/node/74

the relevant theme code:
  $output .= '<table style="width: 100%; vertical-align: top;"
cellspacing="0"

cellpadding="0">

  <tr>
    <td style="vertical-align: top;" class="headersitename">
      ';
  $output .= theme_get_setting('toggle_name') ? variable_get("site_name",
"drupal") :

'';
  $output .= '</td>
<td style="text-align: right;" class="headersearchbox">';
  $output .= theme_get_setting('toggle_search') ? search_box() : '';
  $output .= '
</td>
  </tr>

  ';

The relevant css code

.headersearchbox {
    padding-top : 105px;
    padding-right : 150px;
    padding-bottom : 20px;
    width: 50%;
}

#search .form-text {
    width: 8em;
float: left
}

#search .form-submit {
    padding : 0;
}

I know that the first two work.  I can't prove that form-submit works,
though (doing funky things to it doesn't change anything).

I think the box around it is the container-inline class, but playing with
that did me also no good.

I keep coming up with something really smart, and it never works...  sigh.

Any help is really appreciated.

Anisa.

It was relatively easy to get a working search box in the header, but
theming it has been a *lot* of trial and error. I have gotten it
positioned correctly, but I can't understand why the search box button
is underneath the field, instead of next to it as it is in the search
box, as it is in other themes. Any suggestions?
I suppose the width of the surrounding box (e.g. div, table-element
...) is too narrow.
Do you know the id/class of the entry field? You can, just for test,
reduce the text length to observe if that helps.
Then look for the box around the search-form-element to make it
wider/broader ...
