if you look at
http://www.emrose.net/contact1.html
the last field is a textarea field and I can't make it align with the
other text fields. it's pretty close, but this comes from trial and
error. what do I have to do to make these fields align both right and
left? does the size= attribute in a text input give you the same
dimension as the cols= attribute in a textarea? seems like it doesn't.
Congratulations on fixing the problem you had with the width of your fields
on this page:
http://www.emrose.net/contact.html You are correct that the
cols attribute controls the width of a multi line text field. To match a
single line text field you must set the width of your multi line field to a
greater value. In this case the multi line field cols must be set to 43 and
all the other fields must be set to a size of 40 characters.
That page has some strange code. What are the anchors for? Why put the text
next to the fields inside div's? When I use a form I try to place the tags
so that they're just before and after where the form objects begin and end.
Why did you make the form tags encompass almost the whole page? What is
this?

I've never heard of a csobj tag, am I showing my ignorance? To my eyes
there's a lot of empty space on the left of that page but then I build my
pages to fit a screen size of 800x600. And instead of divs I would have used
tables to build a site like that.
Read this to see how I build with tables: news:11******** *****@corp.supe rnew

I must sound nit picky. I'll shut up now.
Good Luck,
