Hi Bill Kellum,
Thanks for the prompt respond..
Yes indeed it was a broken mini_search.php that caused the page not showing.
What I did was to reduplicate from search.php to make a new mini_search.php..
then I remove a line of code at a time and tested the template (until I got what I wanted, the search box with just the seach field and search icon-- no infobox header or advance search text)
<!-- mini_search //-->
<?php
// $info_box_contents = array();
// $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_SEARCH);
// new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);
$info_box_contents = array();
$info_box_contents[] = array('form' => tep_draw_form('quick_find', tep_href_link(FILENAME_ADVANCED_SEARCH_RESULT, '', 'NONSSL', false), 'get'),
'align' => 'center',
'text' => tep_draw_input_field('keywords', '', 'size="8" maxlength="40" style="width: ' . (BOX_WIDTH-40) . 'px"') . ' ' . tep_hide_session_id() . tep_image_submit('button_quick_find.gif', BOX_HEADING_SEARCH));
new infoBox($info_box_contents);
?>
<!-- mini_search_eof //-->
both sts_user_code.php and sts_column_left.php works fine for custom placeholder : )
I've managed to get the mini_search.php to show in the template now : )
--> However, even when I remove all the codes from mini_search.php it still shows a info box styled box with background colour and border which dont fit into the template.
Question:
How can I make mini_search.php appear without the usual infobox style?
(editing .infoBox and .infoBoxContents in stylesheet.css cause changes to all infoboxes, but I only want to effect the style change on mini_search.php)
many thanks :)
