Today I will share with you beautiful search boxes for Blogger.
Screenshot of Search Box:
Simply open up Blogger, go to Layout > "Add a new gadget".
Now in pop out window search and select for HTML/JavaScript.
And paste code on it:
<style> #search-box { position: relative; width: 100%; margin: 0; } #search-form { height: 40px; border: 1px solid #999; -webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; background-color: #fff; overflow: hidden; } #search-text { font-size: 14px; color: #ddd; border-width: 0; background: transparent; } #search-box input[type="text"] { width: 90%; padding: 11px 0 12px 1em; color: #333; outline: none; } #search-button { position: absolute; top: 0; right: 0; height: 42px; width: 80px; font-size: 14px; color: #fff; text-align: center; line-height: 42px; border-width: 0; background-color: #ff6c00; -webkit-border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 0px; -moz-border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 0px; border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 0px; cursor: pointer; } </style> <div id='search-box'> <form action='/search' id='search-form' method='get' target='_top'> <input id='search-text' name='q' placeholder='Search...' type='text'/> <button id='search-button' type='submit'><span>Search</span></button> </form> </div>And press on "Save" button.
Change some settings:
1) On line 4 you can change the 100% to any size you want to apply to the search box.
2) On line 45 change "#ff6c00" to any color you want for the search button.
3) On line 56 you can change the value of search button, in above code, the value is set to "Search".
