<form action="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=process" method="post" id="navbar_search" class="navbar_search">
<vb:comment><input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionurl}" /></vb:comment>
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" />
<span class="textboxcontainer"><span><input type="text" placeholder="Search here..." value="" name="query" class="textbox" tabindex="99"/></span></span>
