# Loading span styling

 * I’m testing the lite version before buying the pro plugin. All seems good, but
   I have a small issue with the styling of the loading span.
 * I’ve selected underline white and left styling as default, but when I view the
   search box on my site, there is a black background within the search box (<span
   class=”loading”>) that covers the placeholder of the search box. It looks like
   it’s the like plugin CSS that is controlling this too, rather than any theme 
   or other plugin CSS taking over. From style.basic.css:
    div.asl_m .probox .proinput.
   loading { width:32px; background:#000; height:100%; box-shadow:none; }
 * Before I go editing the CSS to resolve this, I wanted to check what it’s used
   for and why it is there? Changing the colour and width doesn’t seem to effect
   anything of the functionality of the search

 * Hi,
 * Well, it is very hard to tell based on the description only, but it sounds like
   a possible conflict with another stylesheet. Can you share a URL where I could
   take a look at this? Thanks!
 * Best,
    Ernest M.
