The code has a slight error (at least for my site). As with others who have commented, I couldn’t get the ’search button’ to show up and work. Here is the code without the extra quotation marks:

This is what i have been looking for. I have removed the blogger navbar and I´m really missing the search function.

BUT SADLY, this does not work on my page. I only get two text boxes the top one emty and the bottom one with the text “searh”.
What is wrong, please help me

Steve, Did you ever get the search box to work on your site? I took a look and it looks like you are using the Google search feature now.

Wendy-

Thanks for the explanation. I thought maybe I was think-headed and was missing something there.

When I finally decide to rid my site of my nav bar, I’ll use the one you’ve provided.

Jim,

This search trick is for a blogger blog that does not already have a search feature. Some templates already include a search box while others do not.

I’m a little dense so maybe you can explain the use of this blogger search feature.

If a person comes to your blog and isn’t familiar with your content, how would they know what to type into the search field and as venkat mentioned, there is already a search field in the nav bar so it would be repetitive to have both (unless one has gotten rid of the nav bar).
