<p>Write something in the search field and press "ENTER".</p>
<input type="search" id="myInput">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> The onsearch event is not supported in Internet Explorer, Firefox or Opera 12 and earlier versions.</p>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("myInput").onsearch = function() {myFunction()};
function myFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myInput");
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "You are searching for: " + x.value;
