Quick Tip: How to Style Google Custom Search Manually

Quick Tip: How to Style Google Custom Search Manually

Core points By manually rendering search forms (without the need to use special GCSE tags), you can manually style Google Custom Search Engine (GCSE), allowing for better control over search input fields and make them look simpler. The GCSE callback function ensures that the input is loaded before changing the input properties. This method is more reliable than using the setTimeout method. The Google Search API can be used to create search boxes and result boxes. If an active query exists, a result box is also created. Other customizations can be achieved by looking up the document. Custom style functions can be added to the search div for further customization. This function can be used to change placeholders, delete backgrounds, and add things that remove backgrounds when out of focus
