RWD theme: Making search bar permanent

Question

I'm using the RWD theme and am trying to make the search bar permanent (rather than clicking the search icon and having it appear). I'm still a newbie and am poking through the template files looking for some Javascript that will make this happen, as well as looking through the SCSS to see if I can find something acting on the id or class (seems to be either #header-search or .skip-links), but I can't seem to find anything.

Any hints on where to go next?

Answer 1

In case anyone else is looking to do this, I ended up finding the Javascript file (app.js) in the RWD theme that's responsible for hiding the search bar. It adds and removes a 'skip-active' class to show or hide the search bar, so I added this script to the header template of my theme and achieved the desired effect:

<script type="text/javascript">

 jQuery(function($){
    $('#header-search').addClass('skip-active');

 });

 </script>
