Help with header file and css

whats newxt

so i have been working on my new wordpress blog locally with lamp and i have everything set up the way i want it but i wanted to add a search bar on the header so i added this code to the header.php file:

[PHP]<form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>/">
<div><input type="text" size="18" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars($s, 1); ?>" name="s" id="s" />
<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" class="btn" />
</div>
</form>[/PHP]

and it works but me question is how do i reference that code in css as i want move it around. Can anyone help me out?

if you just give your div an id <div id="form"> then in the css its just

#form{ position:absolute; 
left:500px; 
top:30px; }

that should move it somewhere in the centre as an example
or else I didnt see your id=searchform at the start so it will work like this in the css without adding anything to the div tag

#searchform{ position:absolute; 
left:500px; 
top:30px; }

I'm afraid that not working for me but it's ok i figured it out anyway. It was already reference as follows. I still don't understand why.

input[type="text"],
input[type="email"],
input[type="url"],
input[type="password"],
input[type="search"] {
position:fixed;
margin-bottom: auto;
right:0;
z-index:20;
margin-top:7px;
margin-right:27px;
border: 1px solid #ffffff;
background-color: #353535;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
max-width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
