I am running into issues getting the input inside a form tag without the dropdown going to the next line. In the example above, I move the open tag from line 11 to after line 4 and the closing tag from line 31 to after line 35. I really like the look of this search but I have to be able to have the main input box within the form tag.

Thanks.
I have fixed this problem when the dropdown inside is clicked and then the search box is hide it.

I had two form tag in HTML document.
I just removed a form tag outside.

Unfortunalty this snippet isnt working properly for me what do I do? Thank you!

Timeka Cobb () - 8 years ago - Reply 0

Add < !DOCTYPE html> (without space between < and !) on the top of <html> tag to display correctly.

Nan Thanwa () - 9 years ago - Reply 0

I just tried this on an iPhone and the search button drops to a line under the carrot. It looks fine on a desk top. Am I missing something?

Doesn't look the best to be honest:

you need to load the extra css.

Martín Gaitán () - 9 years ago - Reply 0

Fair enough, I always thought it's only HTML markup here.

Mateusz Tracz () - 9 years ago - Reply 0

Yeah, plain Bootstrap is not enough in many cases so the CSS from "CSS" tab is necessary.
