label width?

[lukeurtnowski]

in my form http://www.scasp.com/testing/reviewform.php the fielset near the top with 2 column is the one im concerned about.
I said in my css that labels are to have a with of 150 each, why is it not showing?

label { color: #999;
width: 150px; border-color: RED;
text-align: left;
font: 10px bold Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;}

Labels are inline elements generating inline boxes. Dimensions are ignored for inline boxes.

You need to make the labels generate block boxes, e.g., by floating the labels.

Or make them display: block.

Or make them display: block.

That will move the subsequent form field to the next line, which I assume is not the desired behaviour for someone who wants to set a width on the label.

display:inline-block might be useful, but browser support for that is iffy.

You were right, I just floated them and they worked gread. take a look (please) and let me know if you approve?
Thanks
