Hi all,
I would just like to thank all those who have shared their
experiences. There has been some very interesting feedback that has
been mentioned and we are hoping to conduct a few tests and see how
users feel with the colour scheme. I've used the colour contrast
analyser before, and it
yup, but then I take the point of view that web pages are created to
communicate with your audience. If people like me are part of your
audience, flash is pretty much unsuitable.
That doesn't mean there aren't audiences for whom flash is the right
answer, just that thought and analysis are
Hi all,
Here's an odd one I can't seem to solve. I had to style all input
fields in a form with a black background, white text. Rather than give
them a class, I've just given all inputs this styling
EG: input {background:#000; color:#FFF;}
My issue is that the submit buttons now have this

Hi Paul,
You could put them in two separate containers/divs and give the one
containing the form elements you want to style an id.
Doesn't have to be a div though. You could use a list, or anything else that
is containing the form inputs you want to style.
For example:
div id=cont1
input /
input
Or, instead of using a class to reset the layout to original, why not set a
class for the elements you actually are styling?
When I use use INPUT elements I allways add a class related to what kind of
input element it is and only refer to the class in the CSS. Recently I've
started to use
The style background:none is in reference to the background-image
property, which is why it doesn't work.
background:transparent seems to be the most likely candidate as this relates
to the background-color property but there doesn't seem to be a
background:default setting which would be very
You can use CSS selectors:
input[type=text],input[type=password],input[type=checkbox],input[type=radio]
{background:#000; color:#FFF;}
But this doesn't work in IE6...

Go have a look at http://nickcowie.com/presentation/s5-button.html
it should show what you can and can't style on input type submit
(particularly safari/camino), and what you can do with the button element.
Note it is a couple of years old and I don't use the button element at the
moment.
Hi,

Why not do both? Use a coding style that suits you, then compress it for
live deployment.

Thanks for taking the time to reply everyone. Much appreciated.
Not quite what you asked, but have you considered using the button element
for your submit button instead of an input? Removes this kind of annoyance.
Yes, I did forget about that one. However though, I'm stuck in this

Hi all
I've yet to see a full flash website I liked - too often they use small
fonts and poor contrast; navigation is quite often difficult. I understand
that accessibility has been improved, but haven't really explored it (and of
course just because the tools are now available doesn't mean that

wholeheartedly agree about the small fonts and poor contrast
though this is designers getting carried away with things, and pleasing
their own egos
