Form input controls and height in percent?

[Wolf_22]

Can a text input have a percentage height value?
I’ve been able to do it with width, but not height.

(i.e. -

css:

input [type="text"]{width:80%;height:50%;}

[sularome]

try to remove the space between input and “[” so it becomes:

input[type="text"]{width:80%;height:50%;}

Works fine for me…

Using FF 3.0?

%'s height will base themself upon the parent. So if the parent of the input has a heigght of like 500px then yes percentage heights will work.

That’s what it was then. I set the parent element’s height. It works now.

Thanks guys.
