    Simple, but can’t figure it out – trying to align two inline elements: search form and submit button/image.

    Url: https://www.georgiapellegrini.com/wordpress

    html:

    <form id="searchform" method="get" action="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/"><input type="text" value="<?php _e("Search...", 'studiopress'); ?>" name="s" id="searchbox" onfocus="if (this.value == '<?php _e("Search...", 'studiopress'); ?>') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = '<?php _e("Search...", 'studiopress'); ?>';}" /><input type="image" src="https://www.georgiapellegrini.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/georgiapellegrini/images/submit.png" alt="Search"
    class="submit"  value="" />

    css:

    #searchform {
    float:left;
            margin-left:0px;
    	margin-top: 0px;
            margin-right:1px;
            margin-bottom:20px;
    	padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
    	display: inline;
    	}
    
    #searchbox {
    	background: #ffffff !important;
    	width: 260px;
            height:16px;
    	color: #666666;
    	font-size: 12px;
    	font-family: Frutiger Linotype, Tahoma, Verdana;
    	font-weight: normal;
    	margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
    	padding: 3px 0px 4px 5px;
    	border-top: 1px solid #d6d5d5;
    	border-right: 1px solid #d6d5d5;
    	border-left: 1px solid #d6d5d5;
    	border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d5d5;
    	}
    
    #s {
    	background: #F7F5EF !important;
    	width: 270px;
    	color: #333333;
    	font-size: 12px;
    	font-family: Frutiger Linotype, Tahoma, Verdana;
    	font-weight: normal;
    	margin: 0px;
    	padding: 4px 0px 3px 5px;
    	border-top: 1px solid #759697;
    	border-right: 1px solid #A3BAB9;
    	border-left: 1px solid #759697;
    	border-bottom: 1px solid #A3BAB9;
    	}
    
    .submit {
            margin-left:5px;
    	}

    Note the search form and looking glass icon don’t vertically align. The image sits too high, but I can’t move it via margins, etc. Can move it left/right, but not up/down.

    try adding vertical-align: top; to .submit

    I tried it in firefox with firebug and it worked for me.
