Search results take over the whole screen. Where is the best place to control (CSS) how the results are displayed? I searched the site but didn't see a hint. I found content/search.tpl and node/search .tpl. Is there a view used for the results? How is it tied in ? My screen is a simple CSS controlled 3 column layout. search results just break the whole thing and I would like to contrain them to the maincontent area.
Thanks and regards,Mazin

Hi,
You can override /content/search.tpl to change search results view.

Thank you for the reply. I had already tried your suggestion as my initial posting indicates. I am using version 3.4.0. I tried using a minimal search.tpl override template with a singe <h1> blah blah </h1> in it. The view still want the whole screen.
I see the same behavior in the /user templates such as login.
Thanks again and hope we can get an answer soon.

Ok, I figured it out as it was my bad after all. It turns out that I had nested some css inside a section block of code. The search path caused the css inside the section to be skipped. Hence, my formatting was broken.
