搜索栏在导航栏中未对齐

Question

for some reason my expanding search bar won't align properly with the other items on my navbar. It shows on top while sign in and sign out is pushed below. I want them all one line like the new stack overflow navbar. What is the problem?

Both css and html shown below:

 body { padding-top: 65px; } .search-form .form-group { float: right !important; transition: all 0.35s, border-radius 0s; width: 32px; height: 32px; background-color: #fff; box-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075) inset; border-radius: 25px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control { padding-right: 20px; border: 0 none; background: transparent; box-shadow: none; display:block; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-webkit-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 18- */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 19+ */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-ms-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group:hover, .search-form .form-group.hover { width: 100%; border-radius: 4px 25px 25px 4px; } .search-form .form-group span.form-control-feedback { position: absolute; top: -1px; right: -2px; z-index: 2; display: block; width: 34px; height: 34px; line-height: 34px; text-align: center; color: #3596e0; left: initial; font-size: 14px; } 

 <nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top"> <div class="container"> <div class="navbar-header"> <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1" aria-expanded="false"> <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> </button> <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Linkin Park</a> </div> <!-- Collect the nav links, forms, and other content for toggling --> <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1"> <ul class="nav navbar-nav"> <li class="active"><a href="#">Link0 <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a></li> <li><a href="#">Link1</a></li> </ul> <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right"> <div class="form-group"> <form action="" class="search-form"> <div class="form-group has-feedback"> <label for="search" class="sr-only">Search</label> <input type="text" class="form-control" name="search" id="search" placeholder="search"> <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search form-control-feedback"></span> </div> </form> </div> <li><a href="#">Sign In</a></li> <li><a href="#">Sign Out</a></li> </ul> </div><!-- /.navbar-collapse --> </div><!-- /.container-fluid --> </nav> 

Thank you very very very much in advance! :-D

Answer 1

Take look at this, search form and 'Sign In', 'Sign Out' links are in one line. I've changed you html bit, as tag can't hold tags.

 body { padding-top: 65px; } .search-form-holder { margin: 0; padding-top: 10px; } .search-form .form-group { float: right !important; transition: all 0.35s, border-radius 0s; width: 32px; height: 32px; background-color: #fff; box-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075) inset; border-radius: 25px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control { padding-right: 20px; border: 0 none; background: transparent; box-shadow: none; display:block; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-webkit-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 18- */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 19+ */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-ms-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group:hover, .search-form .form-group.hover { width: 100%; border-radius: 4px 25px 25px 4px; } .search-form .form-group span.form-control-feedback { position: absolute; top: -1px; right: -2px; z-index: 2; display: block; width: 34px; height: 34px; line-height: 34px; text-align: center; color: #3596e0; left: initial; font-size: 14px; }

Answer 2

You forgot to wrap the div within <li></li> .

Working snippet

 body { padding-top: 65px; } .form-group { padding-top:10px; } .search-form .form-group { float: right !important; transition: all 0.35s, border-radius 0s; width: 32px; height: 32px; background-color: #fff; box-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075) inset; border-radius: 25px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control { padding-right: 20px; border: 0 none; background: transparent; box-shadow: none; display:block; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-webkit-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 18- */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control::-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 19+ */ display: none; } .search-form .form-group input.form-control:-ms-input-placeholder { display: none; } .search-form .form-group:hover, .search-form .form-group.hover { width: 100%; border-radius: 4px 25px 25px 4px; } .search-form .form-group span.form-control-feedback { position: absolute; top: -1px; right: -2px; z-index: 2; display: block; width: 34px; height: 34px; line-height: 34px; text-align: center; color: #3596e0; left: initial; font-size: 14px; }
