Re: [WSG] form input [Virus checkedAU]

2003-12-09 Thread James Ellis
rereading that it may not be clear, if you want to style the button in 
the label you could do something like this...

label.submitbuttons input
{
  rule : value;
}
wonder if just

.submitbuttons input

would work?

James Ellis wrote:

Not really, there is no class on the submit, it's a class on the

.submitbuttons
{
 background-color : red;
}


.resetbuttons
{
background-color : blue;
}

Taco,

There's more than one way to reference a cat.

I think what Mark means is that if there was a  around the submit
button you could use that as a more specific selector.  IMHO, probably just
easier to use a class (as previously mentioned...)

Steve,

I realize what your saying, and thats exactly what I meant by "I realize I could do it 
the following way, but thats not what I am after." Which was refering to using a class.

Cheers.

..using a descendant selector...

#mydiv input
{
   blah : blah;
}

#anotherdiv input
{
   blah : blah;
}

That said, I've had some issues with getting markup to validate with 
divs in forms.

Hi Mark,



The answer as ever is yes and no.  Yes in mozilla et al and no in IE.


As always ofcourse.


The only way to do it reliable is the way you are proposing - unless you
can refer to it another way - i.e. does it sit in another div that is
referencable?


I don't see however how it being in another div would make any difference? Can you 
explain how it would make a difference if it was in another DIV?

Thanks

Hi Taco,

The answer as ever is yes and no.  Yes in mozilla et al and no in IE.

The "attribute" selector is used as follows:

input[type="submit"]{  your css attributes here}

The only way to do it reliable is the way you are proposing - unless you
can refer to it another way - i.e. does it sit in another div that is
referencable?

   Please respond  

   to wsg  

   

   




Is there some way that you can only target input elements with type SUBMIT?


Example;



form input
{
background-color: #FFCFCE;
border: 1px solid black;
font-weight: bold;
color: white;
width: 160px;
background-image: url(../image/buttonSubmit_background03.gif);
cursor: hand;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}








  
  



This would apply the style over all INPUT elements, but I was wondering if
it could be just applied to the input elements that have type SUBMIT or
BUTTON?


I realize I could do it the following way, but thats not what I am after.



form input .submit
{
background-color: #FFCFCE;
border: 1px solid black;
font-weight: bold;
color: white;
width: 160px;
background-image: url(../image/buttonSubmit_background03.gif);
cursor: hand;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}
