 * Hi All,
 * I am using WP 2.5.1 with the [Whitespace](http://www.briangardner.com/themes/whitespace-wordpress-theme.htm)
   3-column theme. I am very new to CSS/PHP and I have just ventured into WP within
   the past week. Needless to say, I am having a slight problem formatting my WP
   page.
 * Per the below link to my website, I am having a problem centering my search box
   within the right side of the blue navbar. Can anyone offer some assistance in
   this problem? I have researched CSS/PHP coding examples and I still cannot get
   the formatting “just right”.

 * As you can see, the search box is slightly further to the bottom of the nav bar
   than from the top. 🙁
 * Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you in advance.

 * in your stylesheet, find #searchform on line 466
 * change the margin statement to this: `margin:-2px 0pt 0pt 0px;`
 * you can change -2px to -3px or -1px until you find the one you are happy with
