CSS - Text Input

I want to create a div that goes right under an input, I can get it to look fine in FF but not IE using absolute positioning.

Is there anyway I can position the new div relative to the input rather relative to containers around it?

How do I align an actual text input box to the center of the screen using css?

Hi!

I'm in no way "new" to CSS and html, but I don't work with it on a regular basis. That said, what I'm trying to do, I would expect to work without too much trouble, but it's just not behaving like I'd expect.

Seeing code is always a lot easier than trying to describe it, so here's the link to the page I'm trying to fix :
chromocode.ca/test/

The issue I have is that the search box doesn't align with the image of the search button, even though they are the same height, and all elements (the input, the image, and its containing div) have 0 padding and 0 margin.

I tried to put a top-margin of 2px on the image, that lowered the whole thing. Besides, it doesn't look exactly the same in IE7, Firefox and Chrome, so I don't want to start pixel-adjusting for each browser.

Does anyone have any clue what I could do to fix this?

Not sure if this is an HTML or CSS related question but here goes... googling gives me nothing.

I have a form that I've built and on occasion one or two of the text fields may have text in side them but I've sent the text field to 'disabled' so that the user cannot change the information inside.

The problem is is that some of my users are a little bit older and have a hard time seeing what is inside of the disabled text field because its already grayed out and the text inside is gray.

Does anyone know if there is a way to change this or is it just a default with internet explorer?

Thanks!

Hey, I'm having a problem changing the background of a text input field to white. The problem seems to go away when I remove the javascript...I know next to nothing about javascript. Any ideas?

Code:

<label for="email">	
			<input size=30 id="email" name="iemailaddress" value="Enter your email address here" onFocus="functionEmpty(this.form)" onBlur="emptyFill(this.form)" onKeypress="subEnable(this.form)">
		</label>

Code:

input {background-color:white;}

Hi there, I have this basic CSS:
Code:

input.text {
	font-size: 11px;
	border: 1px #93A6C6 solid;
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	color: #3F5674;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

select {
	font-size: 11px;
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	color: #3F5674;
	padding-right: 3px
}

textarea {
	font-size: 11px;
	border: 1px #93A6C6 solid;
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	color: #3F5674;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0px; word-spacing: 1pt;
}

The input box style isn't working correctly. The text I type in is coming out black and in a larger font than specified. If I just use style input rather than input.text it does work, but then it will put square borders around radio check boxes, which I don't want. Any ideas why it isn't working? This is the form it is being used on:
Code:

<form name="Albums Search" method="get" action="searchresults.php">
    <table  border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
      <tr>
        <td><div align="center">
          <input name="searchterm" type="text" tabindex="1" size="50" maxlength="75">
        </div></td>
        <td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="middle"><div align="center">
          &nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="submit" value="Search">
        </div></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td><div align="center">Artist:
          <input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="artist" checked>
          &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Title:
<input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="title">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Year:
<input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="year">
        </div></td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    <p>
      <textarea name="textarea"></textarea>
  </p>
</form>

Thanks

Hey as the topic title says, can I put a background-image on a text input so that it shows in safari? I can't figure it out and can't find anything using google. Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks

I recently put a section on my web page that allows people to submit data to database, and it works but it looks kind of plain. And I had seen this web page (http://textsfromlastnight(dot)com/Submit-a-Text.html) and saw how they seem to use a custom text box for their submit form. Can anyone explain to me how they did this? Or if its done with something other than CSS possibly point me in the right direction to learn?

Thanks in advance!!

I'm going round and round without getting any head way so hopefully someone can give me a hand...
I'm creating a mail form using a background image for the input fields. What I don't want is a border. If I don't add a border: solid black, for instance, I get a default white. Is there a way to have no border?

Code:

INPUT.email {
	background-image: url(images/bg_email.jpg);
	width:206px;
	height:21px;
	font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
	font-size: 14px;
	color: #ffffff;
	border: 1px solid black;
	margin: 0 0 0 10px;
	padding: 0 0 0 6px;
}
 

Thanks in advance!

Hi there! I'll cut right down to the chase: is my method of styling form input fields efficient? Is there a better way to do it? I tried directly styling the input, rather than putting it in a div, but it didn't work in IE (when too much text went into the field, the background would move, no matter what I did. ) Also, is my <label> styling okay?

HTML Code:
Original - HTML Code <div class="formRow"> <div class="textInput"> <input class="textInput" id="name" type="text" /> <label for="name">Name</label> </div> </div>

  

<div class="formRow">
    <div class="textInput">
        <input class="textInput" id="name" type="text" />
        <label for="name">Name</label>
    </div>
</div>

CSS Code:
Original - CSS Code #content div.formRow:hover { background-color: #EEE; } #content input.textInput { font-size: 14px; color: #666; padding: 3px 5px; width: 190px; height: 20px; border: 0; background-color: transparent; } #content input.textInput:focus { color: #000; } #content div.textInput { margin-left: 50px; background: transparent url('images/textInput.png') no-repeat; } #content div.textInput label { font-size: 14pt; font-weight: bold; margin-left: 50px; vertical-align: top; }

  

  


 #content div.formRow:hover


     {


     background-color: #EEE;


     }


 #content input.textInput


     {


     font-size: 14px;


     color: #666;


     padding: 3px 5px;


     width: 190px;


     height: 20px;


     border: 0;


     background-color: transparent;


     }


 #content input.textInput:focus


     {


     color: #000;


     }


 #content div.textInput


     {


     margin-left: 50px;


     background: transparent url('images/textInput.png') no-repeat;


     }


 #content div.textInput label


     {


     font-size: 14pt;


     font-weight: bold;


     margin-left: 50px;


     vertical-align: top;


     } 

And lastly... my image:


Thanks a lot!

For some reason, I cannot get my 2 form elements to line up as far as height is concerened. No matter what I try, one is always slightly taller than the other, even if I set both to the same height. Any ideas?

Code:

input[type="text"], select {
  color:#888888;
  font-size:10px;
  height:auto;
  }

Hi!

Have been bashing my head against the wall with this one for a while now, so I thought maybe someone here could help me out a bit.

Basicly, this sums up the issue:
(sorry for the pure-text link, it didn't allow me to put up a propper one... >.<)

So, what I want is that the search field stays put, no matter how much text is entered into it. This works in all the other browsers, thought it's still a bit buggy, but I think I can fix that.

Here is the code that should be of interest in this issue:
Code:

        <div id="bannerContent">
        <!--{{{-->
           <div id="logo">
                <a href="<?PHP echo $home ?>" target="_self"></a>
            </div>
                
            <div id="search">
                <form>
                    <input type="text" class="searchField" name="uSearchQuery">
                    <input type="submit" class="searchSubmit" name="uSubmitQuery" value="" onFocus="this.blur()">
               </form>
            </div>
        <!--}}}-->
        </div>

Code:

        #bannerContent
        /*{{{*/
            {
            width: 800px;
            height: 158px;
            }
            #logo
            /*{{{*/
                {
                background: url("../images/layout/logo.png") no-repeat;
                
                width: 394px;
                height: 56px;

                position: relative;
                top: 51px;
                left: 24px;

                float: left;
                }
            /*}}}*/
            #search
            /*{{{*/
                {
                width: 331px;
                height: 32px;

                position: relative;
                top: 62px;
                left: 58px;

                display: inline;

                float: left;
                }
                .searchField
                    {
                    background: url("../images/layout/search_field_bg.png") no-repeat;
                    
                    width: 266px;
                    height: 32px;
                    
                    border: none;
                    outline: none;

                    float: left;

                    <?PHP
                    if (!$agentIE && !$agentFF)
                        echo 'padding-left: 10px;' . "\n";
                    else
                        echo 'padding: 8px 0 0 10px;' . "\n";
                    ?>
                    }
                .searchSubmit
                    {
                    background: url("../images/layout/search_button.png") no-repeat;

                    width: 55px;
                    height: 32px;

                    margin-left: -10px;

                    border: none;
                    outline: none;

                    cursor: pointer;

                    float: left;
                    }
            /*}}}*/
        /*}}}*/

Thanks a bunch in advance!

I am using the following code. In firefox the input box (including the border) fits a nice box of 83 by 15. In IE it seems to not be so well, and is bothering things near it.

Any ideas on how to rectify this?

Code:

<td><input type="text" class="loginbox" size="13" /></td>

.loginbox
{
border: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #9AA8C3;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 11px;
color: #40668C;
}

Hi,

I'm not overly accomplished when it comes to CSS so here's my question. I've got the following HTML code:
Code:

<input type="text" name="field1" value="value1" style="width:100%">

I'm preloading a value into this text field which may run past the visible length of the textbox. The text box is situated inside a table cell. The text box fills the table cell space completely whilst the text inside it does not run over but once the text is more than can be displayed in the space provided by the table cell, it forces the textbox to grow. My question is, is there a way around this so that I can still instruct the textbox to be 100% width of the table cell without expanding when the text overflows.

Thanks.

I get this error from XML-CSS validation.

The element type "input" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</input>".

I'd like to know where it goes.

It is this form:

<form action="send_survey_results.php" method="POST">
Name: <input type="text" name="user" SIZE="30"><br>
e-Mail: <input type="text" name="email" size="30"><br>
Interests:<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="intere<input type="submit" value="Register">
------------additional boxes here------------------
<input type="reset" value="Clear Form">
</form>
</div>sts[]" value="clothes">Clothes

Thank you,
Ed
