Wordpress and search when search is in the header of the theme

Hi,
I've discovered when you put the search bar in the header and then select "make header clickable" in the wordpress options, the search becomes unusuable.
If you click in the search box the page will behave like the header was clicked.
So for example if you have "make header clickable" in the wordpress options and have it directing you to the site home page, when you click the search bar, the home page will reload.
Is there a workaround for this issue?
