>Description:
        The web page at <http://www.netbsd.org> is apparently
        intended to have a search form near the top right corner.
        If you enable cross-site javascript, so that javascript
        from google.com can run on a netbsd.org page, then you see
        the search box.  If you don't enable javascript, then yous
        see the words "Google custom search", but there's no input
        field and no submit button.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Use a web browser that has javascript disabled.

	View http://www.netbsd.org.

	See the words "Google custom search" near the top right of the page,
	but no way to enter a query.
>Fix:
	See
	<http://traceyspencer.blogspot.co.uk/2012/02/adding-google-custom-search-form.html>
	for one way of fixing this.
