   <form id="searchform" method="get" action="http://www.url.com">
   <div>
   <input name="s" id="s" size="15" type="text">
   <input value="Search" type="submit">
   	</div>
   	</form>

   -- I want to change the input value, but can't find this anywhere.

   Help! :)

   knowing where the search menu is helps...

   1) in the masthead = file = header.php
   2) in a sidebar = file = sidebar.php ( if you have such a file )

   where do you "see" your search menu?

   The search form is in the side bar, but all I see in sidebar.php is the following:

   <?php get_search_form(); ?>

   That search form comes straight out of the WordPress core, however, if your theme has a searchform.php file, then the contents of that file will override it.

   So create a searchform.php file in your theme directory and put your modified form into that, and voila.
