If you really don't want to use JavaScript, you could use CSS, and define a background image for the searchbox text field. 1. Create a small picture file containing the word "Search" on a white background. Here is an example: http://5ko.fr/pub/css/search-bg.png . 2. Copy this picture on your server, to the directory pmwiki/pub/css. 3. Add to your file pmwiki/pub/css/local.css these lines: form.wikisearch input.searchbox { background: url("search-bg.png") .4em 50% no-repeat;} form.wikisearch input.searchbox:focus { background: none;} If the file local.css does not exist, create it. "search-bg.png" is the name of the background picture, change the line if your file has a different name. 4. You don't have to use (:searchbox value=...:), just (:searchbox:).
