After taking Tom's advice, you can enter text in the search window by placing your cursor on the extreme right of the search field before clicking (there's a very small space that does not overlap the BA banner). Works with Chrome and Safari, no promises in IE.

Moving to the Technical Issues forum as this thread does not have anything to do with AA nor AAdvantage. Thanks!

Search broken
In the SPG forum when I try to search, the search box opens over a sidebar ad and then instead of starting the search links to the ad instead. You cannot move the search box, so you cannot search.

Not able to replicate - but, the ads could be causing the issues being described. Are you able to bypass the issue by searching directly from advanced search page?
