Answer 1

if you look into the source code of stackoverflow > ask question, you will find this:

 
     
 
         
Title
 
         
 
              What's your programming question? Be descriptive. 
         
 
     
 

what really is happening is that a CSS code made the move over the top of input box and show hide when needed... and just do what Sejanus' suggested.
