Now there is a text like "Search..." in the text input of the search box. I would like a blank textbox or a other text as standard.
How can I customize this?
Thanks for help.
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

You can directly manipulate your search box whose usercontrol file is in
/Admin/Skins/Search.ascx
And its CSS file is in
Portals/_default/Skins/Gravity/skin.css

Thanks
Cheers..!!!

You can do it this way. You'll have to be ready to redo your changes every time you upgrade DNN.

I prefer to copy the usercontrol, change the copy. Likewise clone the skin and and point the new skin at the new copy
Best wishes,

Why does no one suggest the easy/best way to do this: Just go to Admin > Languages, and edit the string...
