[css-d] CSS Zibaldone is gone
Hi, for those on this list who know my work on CSS tests for the W3C CSS Test Suite, I'd like to inform you that today I've closed my old website - http://www.css-zibaldone.com - since I can't maintain it anymore. Further, the CSS material contained there is quite obsolete (more than 5 years ago). I've explained my reasons here: http://gabrieleromanato.name/css-zibaldone-is-gone/ If you need my older tests, I've created a full backup, though. You can update the links on your websites with this URL: http://gabrieleromanato.name/ Sorry, but this was a relic of a past age that simply cannot survive today. :-) bye :-) Gabriele Romanato Referente IWA ITALY - Regione Abruzzo International Webmasters Association Italia http://www.iwa.it | e-mail: abru...@iwa.it Professionista Web - Legge 4/2013 http://gabrieleromanato.com/ http://gabrieleromanato.name/ (English) __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] trying to use CSS to define width of Google search input box
I am implementing a google custom search engine. The Google javascript is
inside a div with id=header_search. I am trying to affect the width of the
input box with css in the div tag. I tried the CSS below which had no effect.
Even the display:none test did not work.
style type=text/css
div#Header-search input{
width:200px;!important;
border: 3px solid red;
background-color:#99FF00;
display:none!important;
}
So now I am trying to write it inline to see if I can effect a change there.
This is where I am uncertain how the syntax needed to specify the width of the
input field. Something along the lines of :
div id=Header_search style=input width:100px;
Thank you for any assistance.

Re: [css-d] trying to use CSS to define width of Google search input box
I think you will have to explain what [t]he Google javascript is inside a div means. Even if it physically appears there (horrible thought but possible, I suppose), any input element that it creates won't necessarily be parented there. Let us see the code and we may be able to help. Your inline CSS will never work, I am afraid; what you are attempting with it is logically impossible. Philip Taylor. P.S. What a joy to see both affect and effect used correctly as verbs in the same message :-) Angela French wrote: I am implementing a google custom search engine.

Re: [css-d] trying to use CSS to define width of Google search input box
I figured it out. I had to discover how google was referencing the input.
div#Header_search input.gsc-input {
width:260px!important;
height:20px;
margin-left:105px !important;
color:#3A6E83;
}
