sSearch, is SEARCH box type="search" or type="text"? Why class is empty?

Hi, I am trying to replace SEARCH box with custom text.

So far, this is what I have used:

"sSearch": "<span>Filtro:</span> _INPUT_",

but unfortunatelly this generates:

<div id="catalogListTable_filter" class="dataTables_filter">
    <label>
        <span>
            Filtro:
        </span>
        <input class="" type="search" aria-controls="catalogListTable"></input>
    </label>
</div>

instead of -from a working example/template-:

<div id="DataTables_Table_0_filter" class="dataTables_filter">
    <label>
        <span>
            Filter:
        </span>
        <input type="text" aria-controls="DataTables_Table_0" placeholder="Type to filter..."></input>
    </label>
</div>

Which is what -AFAIK- which datatables generates by default.
I can tweak the CSSs, but I think it would be better to properly understand how to use "sSearch" and what to put there.

Thanks,
