Hey,

 

I'm styling a form in Wordpress - Cforms plugin and finding the CSS seriously confusing. The site is password protected by client request so I've uploaded an image here (as I cant seem to upload images on this forum!):My link

 

All I want to do is align the text 'Name', 'Title', 'Company Name' etc. to the left, no margin, but I cant find where the margin/padding is in the CSS.

 

This is the CSS for the plugin:

 

/*                                                    */
/*  main 'top-level' form elements                    */
/*                                                    */
@import "calendar.css";

.cform { 
margin:10px 0 0 0; 
width: 200px; 
}

.cform fieldset	{ 
margin-top:0px; 
padding:5px 0 15px 0; 
border:1px solid #adadad; 
border-left-color:#ececec; 
border-top-color:#ececec; 
background:#f7f7f7; 
}

.cform .cf_hidden {

border:none!important;

}

Cheers for any help

Without seeing the HTML,

 

i'm assuming you would need to change text-align to left and margin to 0px 1px 0 0 in the following section :

 

/*                                                    */ 
/* global definitions for field labels                */ 
/*                                                    */ 

.cform label { 
       width:90px;  
       margin:4px 10px 0 0;  
       display:-moz-inline-box; /*for mozilla*/ 
       display:inline-block; /*for Opera & IE*/ 
       text-align:right; 
       vertical-align:top; 
} 

so it readds

 

/*                                                    */ 
/* global definitions for field labels                */ 
/*                                                    */ 

.cform label { 
       width:90px;  
       margin:0 10px 0 0;  
       display:-moz-inline-box; /*for mozilla*/ 
       display:inline-block; /*for Opera & IE*/ 
       text-align:left; 
       vertical-align:top; 
}
