Topic awaiting preservation: can you have margin in a texfield ? (Page 1 of 1)

i'm wondering if is possible to set margin in a texfield

so the text wont start on the top left but a little bit off like a few px down and right.....


thx

if you're talking about a textarea, yes...

simply start your textarea..

<textarea>


and leave a few linebreaks and spaces before you close it...

</textarea>

^ that text would be 3 lines down, 10 chararcters indented... (you don't *need* to have any text in there, just put the breaks and spaces into your html)

works in IE anyway.

cheers,

Pete.

::EDIT:: UBB is taking away the indenting.. sorry

You could also use <textarea style="padding: 10px;"></textarea>.
