Hello Tom! I can't applaud you enough for the amount of help you give and respect I have for you. You take the time to work on each problem I have! I really do appreciate it. I have hopefully my last question for you. I know this is probably a quick fix but is there a way to edit the color of the search boxes? I saw your tutorial to make them all the same size however, I didn't see anything for color. Thanks! Also, I am intrigued on the question Matt has below! I would also like to know how to do this.

You mean the color of the background of the input boxes? Here is a css technique, which is very general and no way specific to the script.

Suppose you have some input boxes like
<input name='input1' />
<input name='input2' />
<input name='input3' />
If you want to color them, then surround it with <div>.
<div id='my-div'>
<input name='input1' />
<input name='input2' />
<input name='input3' />
</div>
Now you can specifiy the background of those input boxes with this css
<style>
#my-div input {
background-color:blue;
}
</style>
You can add more css items to the style, such as "font-size", "padding", "text-align", etc.
