Want a cool search box? Look no further. Improve your search by trying this animated apple style search box. PSD also included in download.
This is something I use on all my projects now. It’s designed for a search box, but can be used with any sort of input field.
The great thing about this is that the field value “Search” will only come back onBlur if the field is empty (or doesn’t say “Search”). So if you started typing something it won’t erase your text, which is something that has always irritated me about search boxes.
After my previous tutorial that illustrated how to implement a super simple way to work with Twitter API (PHP + CSS) I received a lot of emails from my readers that asked to me to write a post about how to implement a simple Twitter search and display search results in a web page with a custom format. So in this tutorial I want to illustrate how you can implement that using a very useful Twitter Search API for PHP developed by David Billingham.
