marmite Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Sorry if this is in the wrong bit. I want to format my textboxes completely differently, so that when someone clicks in one it almost looks like they are just clicking into the screen itself. I don't want the whole rectangular, shadowed thing going on. Is it possible to completely reformat buttons, textboxes and textareas? or at least change their colours?

MadTechie Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Try the section HTML or CSS Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/52848-making-textboxes-pretty/#findComment-260919 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgmyr Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Yes, you can easily format those with css. If you really want to get fancy you can use some javascript too.

AndyB Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 While you can do exactly that, be careful that you don't make your forms so stylish that people don't instantly recognize it as a form. For user interaction, function is more important than appearance.

ToonMariner Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Agreed Andy, while you can some nice things you should always take care that when someone visits your page it is clear which elements are for interaction and which are not.
