submit button

[The Little Guy]

is it possible to apply style to objects that are of certain type?

 

So... if I only wanted to apply style to inputs, where the input type is a submit button, and NOT a checkbox, radio button, select box, and so on... How would I be able to do that?

 

I would also like to not use a class.

 

Is this even possible?

this is called an attribute selector.  it will work, but only in those browsers that support it (it should be noted that IE does NOT support it, making it relatively useless):

 

input[type=submit]
{
  style here;
}

 

or

 

input[type=button]
{
  style here;
}

 

although you don't want to use a class, it might be your only option supported well enough to make it worthwhile.

OK... cool thanks works perfect.

you can give your inputs an id or class (class can be applied to mulitple elements on one page) and use that to style them. Admittedly its not as nice as the attribute selector but it does work in more browsers.

<input type="submit" class="bttn" name="submit" id="submit" value="Go" />

 

input.bttn
{
background: #ccc;
color: #333;
}

 

note that some browsers on mac os DON'T style buttons anything like what you'd expect!!!!
