Fix your indentation.

doctype html
html
  head
    block content
     script.
      function changeToTextBox(){
          alert("Testing");
      }
    title User
    
  body
    p welcome #{name}
    button(onclick="changeToTextBox()") Edit
    form(name="searchFrm", method="post")
       input(type='text', name='email')
       input(type='submit', name='search')

And use a compiler like https://pughtml.com/ to view the HTML output so you can better see what's wrong.
