    need help with form
    « on: May 18, 2008, 03:32:27 PM »
    I am making a simple enter email and submit form and I made a graphic for the 'submit' option I need to know how I can move the submit graphic closer to the input email address form [they are seperated down by a p'] its to long to put it by its side, so how do I decrease the space between the two.

    It looks like

    |_______________ EMAIL


    |_____SUBMIT____|

    I want it to be

    |____________|
    |____________|

    Basically as close as the two can mash together, thanks to whoever can provide an answer.

    If you're using HTML, try using a
     instead of a <p> to separate the two.

    If you're willing to put out the effort, you could learn some CSS, which would make this sort of thing much easier.  You'd be able to position things however you want.  But for a quick fix, you can give Steve's suggestion a shot.

      Okay, I got it to work so it looks nice now.

      I do want to learn some CSS but because of the tight schedule I want to finish the website without it; then once I know I am in the clear I can begin learning CSS and more javascript and all the other goodies so I can improve on the website from there and learn it at a more reasonable pace.

      Well going to post another question - just finished the entire layout and put the frontpage on the hosting server to show possible investors, close friends and business associates.

      Thanks for the help you two.

      Understandable.  It's a lot easier to learn CSS as you're designing a site (it can be tricky once the design is complete); however, I know it is to be so pressed for time.  But once you get the knowledge, you'll be happy you did.

        Yeah, I mean I got the index page basically done-- just got to fix some html [like I need to get a program for the join mail list form [which I am having trouble doing], and then just kind of fixing up code for loading times...

        Then I need to make all the other pages [about 30], which includes an online store which we'll be using Paypal since I most definitely don't have the skill or knowledge to build a secure payment site nor the time.

        But once its done I can just play around with improving it and its efficiency, my goal is to make it atleast good enough to be accessible and good enough to run well [even if it is not entirely time efficient for me].
