    Desired Outcome Goal:
    Move the "Browse" and "Simple Search" buttons up to the right of the Advanced Search box (from the bottom left).

    Procedure:
    1. Using Notepad or Notepad++ (a tool which does not auto-add editing commands), edit the local css file for the institution. This is the file which is loaded to the server via the back office Uploader Utility and associated with the Primo View of the institution.
    2. Add the following lines to the localized css:
    /* Move the "Browse" and "Simple Search" buttons up to the right of the Advanced Search */
    #exlidAdvancedSearchRibbon div.EXLBrowseFieldRibbon {
    background-color: transparent;
    border: 0px solid #8FB9D0;
    clear: none;
    margin: 0;
    min-height: 0em;
    padding: 0em 0em 0em;
    width: auto;
    float: none;
    }
    #exlidAdvancedSearchTile div.EXLAdvancedBrowseRibbon div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormSubmitSearch {
    float: left;
    width: auto;
    clear: none;
    display: inline;
    float: left;
    border-top: 1px solid #ADB9C2;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #ADB9C2;
    border-right: 1px solid #ADB9C2;
    border-left: 0px solid #ADB9C2;
    margin-top: 0px;
    }
    #exlidAdvancedSearchRibbon div.EXLBrowseFieldRibbon div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormFields {
    width: auto;
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    }
    #exlidAdvancedSearchRibbon div.EXLBrowseFieldRibbon div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormFields div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormSearchFor {
    float: left;
    width: 25em;
    }
    #exlidAdvancedSearchRibbon div.EXLBrowseFieldRibbon div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormSearchFor input {
    border-top: 1px solid #8FB9D0;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #8FB9D0;
    border-left: 1px solid #8FB9D0;
    border-right: 0px solid #8FB9D0;
    font-size: 1em;
    height: 1.5em;
    padding-left: 0;
    padding-top: 0;
    width: 20em;
    }
    #exlidAdvancedSearchTile div.EXLAdvancedBrowseRibbon div.EXLSearchFieldRibbonFormSubmitSearch input.submit {
    height: 26px;
    }
