need to add width to search box

I can't locate where to change the width of the "Search" box and the "Enter search keywords here" box. The text is running out of the box.
My temporary website address is: http://70.40.209.211/ if you want to have a look.

Re: need to add width to search box

includes/templates/your_template/sideboxes/tpl_search_header.php

$content .= zen_draw_input_field('keyword', '', 'size="6" maxlength="30" style="width: 100px" value="' .

The best way to learn is to try stuff. But, back it up first.

Re: need to add width to search box

I also removed the word "here" on one of my sites. I thought it was rather silly since obviously that's where the search should be entered. That's done by editing:

includes/languages/english/your_template/header.php
