[RESOLVED] CSS Tableless Form
I'm trying to make a feedback form using CSS instead of tables.
It works fine with a label and an input box. i.e. just 2 columns
I come unstuck when I try to add an extra box on the right to make 3 columns. (<DIV ID="help">)
I can't seem to align it correctly or size it correctly.
Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Test CSS Form</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!--
#FormInterest label,#FormInterest input {
display: block;
width: 150px;
float: left;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#FormInterest label {
text-align: left;
width: 200px;
padding-right: 20px;
}
#FormInterest br {
clear: left;
}
#FormInterest form {
border : 1px solid #000;
padding : 5px;
background-color : #ffc;
}
#help{
width: 150px;
float: right;
border : 1px solid #000;
padding : 5px;
background-color : white;
}
