 * Hi-
 * I have this website: [http://www.ecodana.com](http://www.ecodana.com)
 * Currently, as soon as you go into the search field, it automatically queries 
   without letting you type first. Any ideas???? ‘
 * In my searchform.php the code is…
 *     ```
       <form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/">
        <input type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" name="s"
            id="s" size="45" onfocus="this.value=''" />
        <input type="image" src="http://iamerica.backyardpolitics.org/wp-content/themes/arras-theme/images/Search.png" id="searchsubmit" value="<?php _e('Search', 'arras') ?>" />
       </form>
       ```
