Search plugin (I18N)

[polyfragmented]

The form is in a div with class search - easy to target. I won't use an id because you could have more then one search form on the page, e.g. one on the search page and one in the template for quick search.
Anyway, the form was more like an afterthought, because (without tag cloud) it's too simple.
You can easily create a search form component and include it with the DynPages plugin.

Taken from the final markup (plugin version 1.2.1), that's why I asked for a CSS hook:

Code:

<form action="http://www.get-simple.de/suche/" method="POST">
  <input type="text" name="words" value=""/>
  <input type="submit" name="search" value="Suche starten" />
</form>

You're right about rolling your own search form which is what I'll start doing. Easy to add classes/ids or a wrapper.

As for the input field value, you're right about using Javascript, just thought it might be a nice addition for out-of-the-box usage. Totally personal opinion of course. I can add this myself no problem.
