[resolved] Can't type in search box, form broken (8 posts)

    Hi,

    I'm working on a theme and the search box is acting oddly. I can't type anything into it. I have a font-size and line-height set for it, but I can't even click into it.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Lisa

    Unless you provide a link to a page demonstrating the problem, no one will be able to offer much in the way of specific help.

    it is a css issue;
    the div #util_nav is overlaying the search form;

    try 'lifting' the searchform by editing this style in style.css of your theme:

    div#searchform {
    float:right;
    padding-right:10px;
    position:relative; /*new*/
    z-index:10; /*new*/
    }

    Thank you very much for the help. That did the trick, and it wouldn't have been something I would have considered.

    Alchymyth,

    Do you happen to have a copy of the stylesheet you looked at for me? I just wiped out something and don't have the right backup to restore it.

    Thanks,
    Lisa
