1). You didn't use <form> tag. 2). For creating a search box you need to use type="search"and a button. Example:- <input type="search" class="search_button"> <input type="submit" class="submit-button"> 3). You have given the position absolute but haven't mentioned top, left, bottom or right in the css for button's class that is search-button. You can also use margin for aligning your button. Visit w3schools.com, it is good website for html and css and you will find almost everything there.

<form> tag basically is used to create a form to take input from users which can be through text field or text area or radio button or checkbox etc. <form> <input type="search" class="search-button"> <input type="submit" class="submit-button"> </form> This creates a form which contains a search box(kind of a text field) along with a button to search. To know more about <form> tag and its elements visit: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp To know about input type search visit: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_type_search.asp
