Thank you so much for your help, and I hate to bother you further. I really don't know CSS well and it seems that I don't have the knowledge to do this. I inserted the code shown at the bottom of the stylesheet (style.css), but it made no difference. I am assuming that having the following code in the header is "absolute" and precludes any CSS formatting. <form method="get" name="searchform" action="/"> <input type="text" value="" name="s" style="width: 25%;" /> <input class="art-button" type="submit" name="search" value="" /> So I am guessing that this code needs to be replaced with a reference to include the search template only. So I tried removing that code and replacing it with: No luck, the search form still displays in an area below the header. If you want to wipe your hands of this I understand. You can't continue to waste time on this. Cheers Iain Hi James.

Regards, James Hi Iain,

#searchform {

Yeah I had already done that with my first attempt, then changed the form code position within the header code and left it where it is now. What I am trying to achieve is to have the form over the top of the header image, rather than above or below it. I have seen it in other sites and wondered how they did it. Any suggestions? Cheers Iain Hi James.

If you look in there for the code that generates the search form which starts with: form method="get" name="searchform" Then you need to move that code down below the header, you will see a block of code that contains the text div class="art-Header" If you move the search form to after that "art-header" block of code the result will look like: <a href="http://test.fuzzymargins.com/spot.html" rel="nofollow">Test Html</a> You can of course move the search form up or down according to where you cut and paste it within the html for the header. Regards, James Hi Iain,
The code you are looking will be in your theme folder in the header.php file (or something similar). If you look in there for the code that generates the search form which starts with:

form method=”get” name=”searchform”

Then you need to move that code down below the header, you will see a block of code that contains the text

div class=”art-Header”

If you move the search form to after that “art-header” block of code the result will look like:

Test Html

You can of course move the search form up or down according to where you cut and paste it within the html for the header.

Thanks for the help. I have now got the search form in the header, but not displaying how I want it to, or positioned where I want it be. Before I go further the URL is http://www.beachandgardenceremonies.com.au/ As it stands at the moment, the search form appears at the top left hand side of the header. What I would like is for it to appear at the bottom left of the header. The search form that appears at the bottom of the pages is easily removed so don't concern your self with that. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Cheers Iain Hi James.

The search form appearing at the bottom of the page and extending for the full width of the page suggests that it is a CSS issue. If you supply a URL I can have a look for you. Regards, James Hi there,

I created a template with Artisteer that doesn't have a sidebar. There is no sidebar.php, but there is a sidebar1.php. I cannot find a reference to in any file. I have a search form located at the bottom of the page and it extends the full width of the page. Any ideas on how I can move it into the header? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Hi.

You add a custom field to each page, for example <em>viewheader</em> with value equal to YES if you want to display it in the header. Then you check for the custom field and generate the filter for wp_list_pages. Sorry, meant custom fields rather than custom tags.
