Added:

#lsa_window {
box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
width: {vb:raw vboptions.lsa_width}px;
}

to lsa_css.css made no difference. Any suggestions

I did it this way...
In the "product-livesearch4_eng.xml" file, find

#lsform .blockbody.formcontrols {
    border: none;
}

Under that, place this

#lsa_cont {
   z-index: 100;
  -moz-box-shadow:    5px 5px 6px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);
  -webkit-box-shadow: 5px 5px 6px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);
  box-shadow:         5px 5px 6px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);

}

Import the product again making sure to allow overwriting.

This will fix the z-index problem (As posted previously) and create a transparent shadow under the box.

Had to figure it out by myself.

You have to edit the ajax_live_search-min.js file.

Search for center_element(this.cont) , you can remove this line or replace it with /* center_element(this.cont) */

Over this line you have to add the new position. For a clean vb4 it should be:

this.cont.style.top="91px";
this.cont.style.right="35px";

Greetings.

Doesn´t work with vB 4.1.10 with all browsers ... Can someone help me?

[cungchuctanxuan]

it only works with Firefox, not with Chrome

[Mr_Devlin]

it only works with Firefox, not with Chrome

Use the IronBrowser...

But this will not work properly over SSL. When using SSL-connection, the lsa-window will not pop up; search results will be displayed as normal forum search.
Can you state this pls? Any fix for this issue?
