There appears to be a bug in v1.2.9 that keeps the search box from working in IE6. If a visitor is using IE6, they can't enter keywords into the search box. The search box works fine in Safari and Firefox.
You can view the problem at:
http://demo.opencart.com/
Only Internet Explorer 6 seems to have an issue with the search box but there are still a lot of surfers using IE6.
Has anyone found a solution for this?

I'd try and bring them into the 21st century... 
Add this into the head area of the page:
catalog\view\theme\default\template\common\layout.tpl
<!--[if IE 6]>

A very slow death thoughless and less:
Export/Import Tool * SpamBot Buster * Unused Images Manager * Instant Option Price Calculator * Number Option * Google Tag Manager * Survey Plus * OpenTwig
I would much prefer the developers spent their time fixing real bugs rather than fixing bugs caused by a non standard-compliant ancient browser like IE6.
Seriously, it came out 8 years ago.. it's time to let go.
