In HTML5 there is a new input type, ‘search’.
On most browser it’s just remain to a simple ‘text’ input, but for webkit based browsers, it adds a little cross to reset the input.
I’d like to be able to handle this, is there an event for that?
No, it’s not possible. This UI interaction is some goodness that webkit implements, but is not actually specced. See here. So even if it were possible–you can’t expect this UI to be implemented in Gecko, for example, if and when they ever add type=search.
