[css-d] Styling of disabled form elements

Hi all, Just wondering if it's actually possible to apply styles specifically to disabled form elements or if we're just at the mercy of the browser? And if it's possible, could you possibly give an example or two? Thanks! Mark ___

Just in case anyone cares, I've fixed this problem - the top line of my CSS was causing the crash, and wasn't even used: DIV,* {position:relative; top:0; left: 0} I don't know why this was sttill in there, a leftover from the template I customised, no doubt. Hopefully someone will find this usefu
