I just have a small question regarding my searchform.php file below:<\/p>\n

<div class="searchform">\n<?php $search_text = "Search the website"; ?>\n<form method="get" class="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>\/">\n<input type="text" value="<?php echo $search_text; ?>" name="s" id="s"\nonblur="if (this.value == '')\n{this.value = '<?php echo $search_text; ?>';}"\nonfocus="if (this.value == '<?php echo $search_text; ?>')\n{this.value = '';}" \/>\n<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" \/>\n<\/form>\n<\/div><\/code><\/pre>\n
The $search_text string seems to only work with the onblur and onfocus when the text is longer than two words. I just want Search website<\/strong>. Is this possible?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-956010","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-searchpage"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/956010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/956010\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=956010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
