Changing color of search link in navbar

[CrashPush]

I would like to change the color of the search link in my navbar to red to encourage more searching by my members.

How is the easiest way to do this?

Find the search link code in the navbar and use something like

<a style="font-color:red;" href="search.php">

Thanks but that didn't work.

In Navbar template:

Find:

$vbphrase[search]

Replace:

<font color="#FF0000">$vbphrase[search]</font>

It actually should have been:

<a style="color:red;" href="search.php">

You should try to use CSS as the font tag is deprecated.

Or you can:

Add this to "Additional CSS Definitions"

 .searchcolor {color: #FF0000;}

And in Navbar tempate find:

<a href="search.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="4" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[search]</a>

Replace with:

<a href="search.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="4" rel="nofollow" class="searchcolor">$vbphrase[search]</a>
