Today I am going to tell you how to create Amazon Style Search Box with filter options using jQuery & CSS code. This tutorial will help you to implement search box with dropdown option in your ecommerce projects like amazon.com

var Search_Str = $(this).val();
//replace search str in span value
$("#nav-search-in-content").text(Search_Str);

Using the same idea you posted here I didn’t think it functioned quite like the Amazon search bar so I used the code here as a starting point and rewrote it using floats. I didn’t like the select area to be fixed it should change width accordingly. Hope you like the improvements. https://jsfiddle.net/IAMGROOT/azqbLfd0/1/ since you cannot upload graphics i replaced the drop arrow and submit button with a solid color you just need to change the background to the image instead. Hope you like it. Now it works and looks exactly like the Amazon bar.
