I would like to reformat the search box that is provided when making custom theme.

In every example, I see : print $search_box

I'm wondering if its possible to do: print theme('search_box', $search_box)

I had a similar problem trying to theme menu items and accomplished by doing putting the following in my template.php file:

function phptemplate_links($links, $delimiter = ' | ' ) {
	/*I can now use links.tpl.php to style links*/
	return _phptemplate_callback('links',array('links'=>$links,'delimiter'=>$delimiter));

But since there is no "theme_search_box" themeable function.... I am stuck...
Looking at the documentation for search_box at http://api.drupal.org/api/function/search_box/5, it states:

Output a search form for the search block and the theme's search box.

Unfortunately, I can't find any documentation how to specify a themed search box..... is this even possible??

Any help is greatly appreciated.
