[SOLVED] Text box image

[damdempsel]

Is there a way to make a input box have an image? I know you can do it with submit buttons but I can't seem to find anything with text boxes. I guess it doesn't need to be an image as much as a color. Anyone know how?

Here is a code I found for the submit button:

<form name="form1" action="target_file.php" method="GET or POST">

 

//Your form fields

 

//Here is the submit button

<a href="java script:document.form1.submit();" title="Submit the Form"><img src="image.png" onmouseover="this.src='image2.png';" onmouseout="this.src='image.png';" border="0"></a>

</form>

You can use:

 

<input type="image" src="urlpic.gif" name="submit">

But is there a way to do it with a text box? When I say text box I am talking about this:

<input type="text" name="whatever">

You could set a background image to it

 

<input type="text" style="background-image:url('xxx.gif');border:0px;">

[mikesta707]

if you want to make a text box a certain color, you can use CSS, IE

<input type="text" style="background-color:#000000" ...etc />

 

that would make the background color black. Obviously, you could set the background-image attribute, as well as any other attribute you wanted. BTW this is a CSS problem, not really a PHP problem
