GCS is not working on my blog properly, so i was searching for something like this.
thanks Ammar.
They are great, but I noticed one problem: The search box is not clickable. I had to hit “enter” on the keyboard to get results! I tried Style 5.
Can I have your blog link where you placed this widget? So I can find out the problem :)
Thanks!
I placed the box after the post.
