Hi, I have a "search" textbox in my navbar to have its own customized UI. How can I overwrite it in my own css file? Thanks!

Hello, Could you specify what exactly would you like to overwrite? E.g. Paste some screen and describe the problem? Then I will try to help you. Best, Marta

Hi Marta I have the same issue on <a href="http://www.rotary-ribi.org/clubs/homepageV5.php?ClubID=1103" rel="nofollow">http://www.rotary-ribi.org/clubs/homepageV5.php?ClubID=1103</a> I'd like the search box in the navbar to be the default white box, with the magnifying glass. Hope you can help   (BTW - the option to subscribe to this thread doesn't appear - the word 'subscribe' does, but no checkbox) Cheers Chris

Hi,
I'm not sure how exactly your search form would look, but maybe you mean sth like this:
CSS:
<style type="text/css">
input[type=text] {
width: 130px;
height: 46px;
box-sizing: border-box;
border: 2px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
font-size: 16px;
background-color: white;
background-image: url('https://www.w3schools.com/howto/searchicon.png');
background-position: 10px 10px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
padding: 12px 20px 12px 40px;
-webkit-transition: width 0.4s ease-in-out;
transition: width 0.4s ease-in-out;
}
input[type=text]:focus {
width: 50%;
}
</style>

HTML:
<!-- Main navigation -->
<header>
<!--Navbar-->
<nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-md navbar-dark indigo">
<!-- Navbar brand -->
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a>
<!-- Collapse button -->
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent"
aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation"><span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span></button>
<!-- Collapsible content -->
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
<!-- Links -->
<ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Features</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Pricing</a>
</li>
<!-- Dropdown -->
<li class="nav-item dropdown">
<a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" id="navbarDropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">Dropdown</a>
<div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary" aria-labelledby="navbarDropdownMenuLink">
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
<!-- Links -->
<!-- Search form -->
<input type="text" name="search" placeholder="Search..">
</div>
<!-- Collapsible content -->
</nav>
<!--/.Navbar-->
</header>
<!-- Main navigation -->

Best,
Marta
