Fill in the blank



How do I make a input text box appear like a fill in the blank line. i.e.

1. is it possible to hide some of its borders and display only the bottom
border?
2.to place is just above a sereies of underscore charactors and have it
borderless? (how)

any other way?

Ask in comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets, or just look into the
CSS specs. Nothing to do with PHP.

You don't know that. You look more and more like a troller the more you
post lately.

Yes, I DO know that. PHP is server-side, and has nothing to do with how
the data is displayed. All of that is HTML or CSS - which should be
followed up in the appropriate newsgroups.

But if you knew ANYTHING - you would understand that.

Stuckle is right this time.
Right, but pedantically unhelpful.

And not right to act like its HIS NG.

But what the heck. Try this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Borderless Input</title>
<style type="text/css">
#nobbis {
border: 3px solid red;
border-top-style: none;
border-left-style: none;
border-right-style: none;
}
</style>
</head>
<body style="background-color: #dff;">
<form action="#" method="get">
<div>
<input id="nobbis" type="text" name="nobbis" value="Sample text" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

No, you're obviously being myopic, maybe on purpose. PHP is executed
server-side, but ... it can be written/implemented by either side,
depending. When PHP executes, I can only wonder where you think its
output may go.

No, you're being asinine. PHP doesn't create the text box in the
browser, (X)HTML and CSS does. All PHP *might* do is echo the statements.

PHP running on the server cannot affect how the text box looks in the
browser - other than generating the proper (X)HTML and CSS. And PHP
does not run on the client's browser.

This is nonsense.

Of course how an input field displays is a HTML and CSS question.
