Search box

I need to daisplay a text inside the search box (like: type your search here), and I see it exist but has a css "display:none"
if I change it to "inline" it messes up the design, how can I show the text inside the search box without messing up the design?

Got it.
For future reference.
don’t mess with the css legend, it has nothing to do with it.
go to /app/design/frontend/default/jm_tube/template/catalogsearch/form.mini.phtml
and change:

<input id="search" type="text" class="input-text" name="<?php echo $this->helper(‘catalogSearch’)->getQueryParamName() ?>" value="<?php echo $this->helper(‘catalogSearch’)->getEscapedQueryText() ?>" />

to:

<input id="search" type="text" class="input-text" name="<?php echo $this->helper(‘catalogSearch’)->getQueryParamName() ?>" value="Your search statement" onfocus="if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.val ue=”;" onblur="if(this.value==”)this.value=this.defaultV alue;"/>
