setting size of text box with css

[BrianM]

How would I set the size of this text box using CSS?

 

<td id="header_report">report</td>

 

<style type="text/css">
#header_report {
size: 100;
}
</style>

 

That doesn't work...

try this

 

#header_report {

width: 100px;

        height: 20px;

        background-color: #dddddd;

}

 

also google for "CSS BOX MODEL" read up on that it will tell you everything you need to know about setting size, padding, and margin on elements like this
