HTML - How To Make Textbox Appear

How can I add textbox on a form having a button? So I can pass it's value to the next page

Right...I'm in the process of creating a sample website, which takes in date data and number data...and I was wondering...as I have the option of using drop downs or textboxes....if the site does go onto a server...would it be easier (as the developer) to use drop downs or text inboxes..?

I mean..when it comes to the user choosing things using the drop down or inputting into the textbox..and sending it to search in a database...which would be easier to play around with..and less complicated..?

*thinks Am I making sense?*

I am trying to put a simple text box on my form, but no matter what values I put in for the size of the textbox it reamins the same size!

However, copying just the form code to a blank html document and the text box appears in what ever size I want.

I didnt want to post the whole code here because a) is over 600 lines and b) im an ameatur and its rubbish code!

However, I am using PHP in Dreamweaver if that makes any difference. This is driving me crazy, pleasehelp!

Hello, i was wondering if anyone could tell me how i would place a textbox inside a layer (textbox with scrollbar only vertical). The textbox can only be wrote in by me to display text, not by any other user.


I was also wondering then how would i position the textbox within the layer so it would be in the middle of the layer not at the top.

And how i would then changed the colour of the scrollbar.

Thanks

Does anyone know how to disable the textbox on an input control? I want to force the user to browse for a file, not let them enter it manually.

Hi there,

I have a quick and simple terminology question.

what is the name given to the "helper text" that I've seen on some websites alongside textboxes to help you fill them in?

They are present at: https://twitter.com/signup

if you click on any of the fields.

Secondly, I see twitter does this using tables - which everyone seems to hate for layout.

What is a better way of doing this? I assume that you fire some javascript when the textbox is active etc. But how do you get the textbox styled and floating on the right?

Cheers,
J

Hi all, how do i go about making my html form textbox borderless like the one in this picture? I want to make my form a bit better looking, so any links to customising them would be good.

Hello everybody,

maybe someone can help me here - I have a little form on one of my websites where a user is supposed to type in one number in one little textbox. The textbox should be just big enough to contain only one number.

While it is fine in Mozilla it seems to be messed up in Internet Explorer 6.0.

Just two images - this is what it looks like in Mozilla:



and this is what it looks like in IE:




How in earth can I force it to show up in IE as it should, with a small box containing just one number?

Here is the code:

Code:

 <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="m1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3" WIDTH="1"></TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="m2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</TD>
<TD VALIGN="TOP"> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="d1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="2"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="d2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="7"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</TD>
<TD VALIGN="TOP"><TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
 STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="9"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y3" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="4"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y4" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="2"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

I added the maxlength out of sheer despair and now I am at all wits end.

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?? That would be so great..

Many thanks for reading and sorry if this is a bit bulky with the images. I also have a vague idea that this should probably be in css but then it's still html. I'm not good with css anyway..

I'm having problems moving textbox up toward upper right corner in div id "login". I tried in css margin-bottom or margin-top or padding-top or bottom and it moves the whitespace. How do I just move the textbox?Also I have no idea why Registration is a link with picture in it? How do I remove that and make it just text?

how to give equal width/size for a input type textbox or select box for all the browsers (ex: Ie7, FF2 and 3 etc..)

Code:

<input type="text" size="20" value="" />

Now this size varies in different browsers. So I used Code:

<input type="text" value="" style="width:150px;" />

This worked properly.

But when I do this styling for select box its not happening.
Code:

<select name="123" style="width:150px;"><option>eeee</option><option>rrrr</option></select>

The point is I want the text box and the select box width to be same when I am using them largely in forms..

Anyone knows the solution??

Hi, I have a form designed to take details of a customer; I want to have the details of a form display in it's own textbox so i can use some javascript to 'Ctrl+A' and 'Ctrl+C' it. This code I have already, but getting the info from the 'form' into the text box is the issue.

Another thing I should mention, this will be stored locally on a machine, there's no web servers. It's purely a web-based app for someone to put into while they're taking a call for a problem.


any idea's, here's the code on my page thus far:

I won't bother to link my CSS it's very basic. my main.html (<FORM name="MNTA" action="data.html" method="post">) page exists but doesn't have any code. I don't mind if I have to have the data populated on another page that's fine. I also don't mind using JS and the site will only be viewed in IE 6.


Thanks in advance, I can't find anything and beleive me I've spent hours trying.
