Moving search header

[Fogie]

How does one go about placing the header search inside a predesigned header?

Thanks!

You cut and paste the code in the right place.
Sorry about the vague answer but the question is a bit vague too, maybe you can paste your header file to make it easier.

Sorry... I was a bit tired when I posted the question...

What I want to do is put the search box with my own graphic into a header that I had already made. At http://bikerbatteries.com/catalog/ I want the search header to appear in the blue space at the lower right corner of the header.

I'm sure that I am overlooking the obvious but I have tried cutting and pasting in so many different ways that my cyber scissors have grown dull.

Thanks!

Fogie, you need to cut and paste the header in this forum or attach it because no one can see what your php code is like from looking at the site alone.

Actually, I guess that is the question itself... what php code do I use for the search? There is none in there right now. My entire header.php file is:

I am wanting to put the search box in the cell marked in red and the button in the cell marked in green.

Thanks again for helping!

Oops... wasn't thinking that my "earmarking" colors would not stand out amongst the code... near the bottom of the table are the two cells where I want to put the search... they are marked by the "color" and "bold" tags that the forum interface inserted.

Essentially, I am trying to get my ZC header to match the site header on the main page at http://bikerbatteries.com but without the flash.

Which also begs another question that I have had great difficulty understanding despite reading a plethera of forum topics -- can anyone explain IN DETAIL how to put a sidebox on a page outside of ZC? I want to put the search and login functions on the main page mentioned above.

Thanks again!
