Re: [WSG] form problem

2008-02-25 Thread Michael Horowitz
I hadn't realized I had the link break. I had also had an issue where 
their were additional spaces between textarea and main.  I thought 
whitespace didn't matter for xhtml though.


Question anyone see why the textarea is showing up on a different line 
than the label. Everywhere else it lines up correctly.  It doesn't seem 
that I am out of space.  It looks ok in Dreamweaver but the problem 
occurs in both IE and Firefox.  (And yes I will fix the other label 
issues people pointed out for accessibility later today)

Your current code is

label for=commentsComments:/label
textarea name=comments rows=6 cols=40
  /textarea

It should be

label for=commentsComments:/label
textarea name=comments rows=6 cols=40/textarea



The value of the for attribute should match an *id*

The following works.

br /  -- changed from p/p
p class=comments
label for=commentsComments:/label
textarea name=comments rows=6 cols=35/textarea --Cols now 35
/p

A line break immediately before a paragraph doesn't make sense. You  
probably should be using a margin instead.


A form control and its label don't really qualify as a paragraph, a  
div is probably a better bet.



label for=commentsComments:/label
textarea name=comments rows=6 cols=35/textarea --Cols  
now 35


The for attribute of a label refers to the id attribute of a form  
control, your id attribute is missing.

[WSG] form problem

2008-02-24 Thread Michael Horowitz
For some reason my text field 
http://terrorfreeamerica.us/christians.html insists on putting the 
cursor in the middle of the field.  I've tried setting the fieid and the 
form to test:align :center thinking that would resolve the issue and it 
didn't.

Any ideas

thanks

Hi Michael,
Remove the whitespace between the textarea tags and that should fix the
problem.

Michale,
  It looks like there are a couple extra tabs or spaces being placed into
the field.  That may be throwing it off.

RE: [WSG] form problem

2008-02-24 Thread Jason Gray
Could be caused by the spacing between your opening textarea and the closing
textarea tags

Try  textarea  name=comments rows=6 cols=40/textarea

Also in your label tags your for attributes should have =   eg label
for=email

Michael,
You need your text field like this:
textarea name=comments rows=6 cols=40/textarea

Also you have a missing = in label for=submit

If you want your form to be accessible you will need your label 
for= to be identical to your input name = id=

Neither of these two examples from your form are accessible. 

label for =ZipZip:/label
input name =zip id = zip type=text/

label for =christian organizationChristian Organization:/label
input name =christian id = christian type=text/

The best way to check if you have it right is to click on the field name 
the cursor should start blinking in the input field.

It doesn't appear that you have uploaded it then.

I tested your code with and without the change.  Post change it works as 
it should.
