Hi,

I have added the search box using the toolbar. It works fine. My problem is with its layout. I have on one line the label 'search' and on an other line underneath I have the input box and the search button.
I would like to have all the element on one line.
I know there is something to deal with CSS. But I haven't found what to changed (I search I lot although!!!! ;) )
THanks for your help

There are many possible solutions to the problem you're having and yes CSS is where to start. Remember that IE has it's share of bugs.
I don't recall the specific attribute which fixes this but here is some of the code I used.... hopefully it's the bit that did the trick. I would advise that you use Mozilla with the 'webdeveloper' addon to help you fix this...

Hi,

after hours of search... I finally found it!
it was just a parameter in the pagelayout.tpl where the toolbar is included:
just needed to replace
{tool_bar name=top view=<b>full</b>} by {tool_bar name=top view=<b>line</b>}.....

Tricky
THanks again for your help!
