 * I am having a problem removing the Search for: text from the search widget:
 * .widget_search .screen-reader-text {
    display:none; }
 * is the code Ive found that will do it, but I already tried entering it in 10 
   different places in stylesheet and it does not work no matter what I do
 * I looked at the HTML source:
 * <ul id=”sidebar_content” class=”lessgap”>
 * <li id=”search-5″ class=”widget widget_search”><h2 class=”widgettitle”>Search
   </h2>
    <form role=”search” method=”get” id=”searchform” action=”[http://finefocusfilms.com/blog/&#8221](http://finefocusfilms.com/blog/&#8221);
   > <div><label class=”screen-reader-text” for=”s”>Search for:</label> <input type
   =”text” value=”” name=”s” id=”s” /> <input type=”submit” id=”searchsubmit” value
   =”Search” /> </div> </form> <li id=”calendar-2″ class=”widget widget_calendar”
   ><h2 class=”widgettitle”>Posts Calendar</h2> <div id=”calendar_wrap”><table id
   =”wp-calendar”>
 * the part of code screen-reader-text seems to be correct, so it should work, but
   since I already tried putting in so many places and it still does not work I 
   dont understand what I might be doing wrong, and beginning to sense that it is
   not the location of stylesheet where I am pasting it that is not right here.
 * I tried including it in general section, sidebar sections, main, widget section,
   search section and no matter where I include it it does not effect my search 
   for text.
 * Should I still do it through stylesheet (If some kind gentleman helps me figure
   this out) or maybe there is a way to edit HTML directly? (though I dont know 
   where I would do that)
 * Based on HTML it seems all I need to is remove the text from the source, LOL,
   but dont understand if it is directly editable like that in wordpress.
 * SOS once again :)\\\THANK YOU!!

 * Dear gentlemen,
 * I have added the following to sidebar.php and everything fixed:
 * <ul id=”sidebar_content” class=”lessgap”>
    <?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’)
   || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?> <li id=”search”>
 *  <li id=”calendar”>
 * <?php endif; ?>
 * This is a basic markup I found in support section,
 *  however I edited it to use the style part of my stylesheet. Keep in mind in 
   desperate efforts to get this fixed before I came to the forums, I already removed
   so many code elements and basically edited ALL styles I could find for sidebar
   to list style:none and no backgrounds, so as soon as I included list format in
   sidebar.php the bullets were gone. But I simply included ul, li, li, ul with 
   no content within.
 * I could never expect that to make sidebar work I have to make a list from within,
   even if it is a blank list that will no be visible at all…. that info was new
   to me and I am very happy I was able to resolve it with you kind and generous
   help fellow programmers.
 * You guys have helped me tremendously!
 * I truly appreciate you fast assistance and contribution to the community. I love
   the forum culture of the web, I cannot imagine my life without it, whether it
   is programming, vehicle repair or any other info one may need – amazing help 
   to all of us newbies in the world!!!!!

 * Thank you for some reason I thought list format is optional,
 * I appreciate your support and prompt reply!
 * I validated the css in attempt to resolve the issue before posting here but the
   validator results were like a horror story several pages long 🙂 i am not too
   sure where I will begin to correct it but I need further reading first, I am 
   sure
