Hi,

I have the search box in the first sidebar. Everything looks really good in Chrome, but in IE8, the search box goes into the content (see picture)

This appears to be governed by the code in ie8-fixes.css:

/* Header - Search  */
#block-search-form .inner {
  text-align: right;
  white-space: nowrap;
  width: 250px;
}​

If I comment out the text-align and width settings, my block displays correctly. From the comment I assume that this code is relevant when the search box is in the header, but not in a side bar?

My changed code is:

/* Header - Search  */
#block-search-form .inner {
  /*text-align: right;*/
  white-space: nowrap;
  /*width: 250px;*/
}​

Thanks
Rich

Rich,

you are right about the ie8 css for the header search box. and commenting it out is the right thing to do for your application. I'm going to mark this as fixed but leave it open for others who might want to do the same.

Thanks

Chad
