Customize Google Custom Search Box Part 2

Google Custom Search Search Box designs
Google Custom Search is just like a dream come true for any Website owner. The ability to provide your readers with Google-like searching power into your website's vast archives that too at no expense. It makes sure readers searching for a specific topic that you published a long time is never missed by them. But there is a shortcoming in terms of designs to choose from. Here I will be showcasing 6 different designs of search boxes which will surely suit your blog.


Do remember to check out the previous 6 Search Box Designs for your Google Custom Search Box

I am assuming that you have already setup your Google Search Custom search engine. In case you haven't ,then first check this guide for setting it up for your blog .There are many variations Google Custom Search with options of AutoComplete and other features but normally looks something like this

<div id="cse" style="width: 100%;">Loading</div>
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load('search', '1', {language : 'en', style : google.loader.themes.ESPRESSO});
google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl('XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY');
customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search.Search.SMALL_RESULTSET);
customSearchControl.draw('cse');
}, true);
</script>


Here you can't really see where to apply the styling as the form tag is dynamically added via JavaScript after the page load. Now the following code also works the same way as the above Code, only thing is that it is easy to Customize and also loads faster :

<form id="searchbox_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY" action="URL of the Page where the Result is to be shown"> 
<input value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY" name="cx" type="hidden"/>
<input name="q" type="text" />
<input value="Search" name="sa" type="submit"/>
</form>

In the id "searchbox_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY" , XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY is your "Search engine ID" which you can find on the Control panel of your search engine.

If you are using the Adsense linked GCS then your search Box should look something like this:

<form action="URL of the page where the Result open id="cse-search-box"> 
<div>
<input type="hidden" name="cx" value="partner-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYY" />
<input type="text" name="q" />
<input type="submit" name="sa" value="Search" />
</div>
</form>



How to Add it To Blogger:

Either you can install it directly using the One-Click Installer or follow the steps below

1.In Your Blogger Dashboard Click Template > Edit HTML





2. Find the following piece of code : (Press Ctrl+F for a search bar to help find the code )


]]></b:skin>


3. Copy and Paste any one of the CSS code that you like from below Directly just Above


]]></b:skin> .

4. Now go to Layout > Add a Gadget and add the corresponding HTML of the Search Box code into a HTML/JavaScript Gadget

Note: Make sure to insert your own "Search engine unique ID" for the Search box to work.
