Change input box: input area with CSS/HTML

So, I have a box that I want to use as my search box/input box. Although when I type on it, I can type on the whole image.

What I want to do, is to be only able to type in the white space of the image? Would I add padding to it?

This is my CSS:

input.searchbox {
background-color: #fff;
background:url(search.png) no-repeat;
width:250px;
height:41px;
border:none;
font-size:20px;
}

And here is my HTML:

<input type="text" class="searchbox" size="20" value="{Q}">

Also, how would I change the text size within the box?

depending on your image (text location, what the text is) I used a table to hold the input (with image) and then in a seperate column had the submit button with a matching image next to it.

IMHO it really depends on the image that your using and how you are trying to match it up with the input field.

your image is a background image. so the text will write over it if necessary.

try putting in a seperate image with some margin between that and the text.
