Hallo,
I am wondering how does one give a form type of text a few spaces before the text in that field starts?
Thanks.

Is this what you mean? http://www.visibilityinherit.com/cod...nput-value.php
Hi,
No. I mean what is the code to have the start of the Text inside a from Input field to be X pixels from the start of the Input field left side.
For example look here:

What I want is to have:
"I am looking for"
to start a few pixels from where it is now.
ThanX

That does not work. It does nothing.
Just tested yes it does.
Code:<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>untitled</title> <style>input{padding-left:20px}</style> </head> <input type="text" name="" value=""> <body> </body> </html>
As Eric said it will work if you target the element correctly.
Code:.search_box{padding-left:10px}

Hi,
That Works.
FYI, I wanted to do it this way:
<input type="text" name="find" maxlength="40" class="search_box" style="width: 400px; padding-left: 10px;" value="<?php echo $_SESSION['find']; ?>">
but it was not working that way!
But it works Ok as you noted when the padding info is entered into the .css file
ThanX
