I don’t think he’s talking about Flash. Its a CSS question. :slight_smile:

Ryan: You would use CSS. Do you have DreamWeaver? beacuse that pretty much does it for you.

This will get you started: http://www.outfront.net/tutorials_02/adv_tech/funkyforms1.htm

I stand corrected :slight_smile:

The following code should get you on the right path. Just tweak away.

<*style type="text/css"> 
input { padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-style: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; font-weight: bold} 
<*/style>

Remove the astericks (*) in the style tags

ahh, thank you. thats exactly what i was looking for. thanks for the help. and im not using dreamweaver. i have it but havnt had the time to learn it yet, so it sits unnoticed on my computer. any suggestions on how i could get an idea of where to start on using it? they want like 200 dollars for a class on it, and thats normally very general. well, anyhow, thank you.

open up dreamweaver and go to Text > New CSS

and define a custom tag… name it “myTag” without the quotes…

Go to border, and set your properties how you want them to be…

then in the HTML code for the form it would look like this


<input class="myTag" type="text" size="15" name="title">
