When applying this code i got the result of the photo attached.

You'll see that the search bar now has the icon on the wrong side and is still bleeding out of the intended place inside the mid bar.
This is the coding from my entire navbar section in vbulletin: (maybe it can be of somehelp? I believe both the search and the midbar are in this coding. )

I just used FireBug in Mozilla to try and place it. Could it possibly be that I am using this program? I wanted to see the changes before applying them to the actual code.
Am i supposed to take out the searchBox class all together and just make it a div with the styles you have highlighted in red then?

And do I only need to move that section of the searchbox you posted. What about the coding above it : <vb:if condition="$vboptions['enablesearches']"> ??
