To Move The Search in the Orizontal Menu.

Black Cat Total Posts: 564 Joined: 2008-02-14 Gonnesa (Italy) Ignore user	Hi. I would like to move the “search” box from the header to the horizontal menu, to the right of the topmenu (categories). Particularly it would serve me move it inside the div with class="header-nav-container." Is the problem that this tag is not found in the file header.phtml, but in another file recalled by the function <? php echo $this->getChildHtml ('topMenu')?>, How can I do to move the box search inside “header-nav-container?” Signature Cerchi un Webdesigner o grafico per Magento?
