Hello,
I have used the code snippet within CoffeeCup HTML Editor,
and would like to know how, if its possible, I can change the colour of the button the snippet generates, also the font for text displayed on the button.

A straight forward example of the code required would be appreciated if it is possible to do it..

Thankyou
Peter

Could you post the snippet code here, I don't think that snippet made it into the recent 2009 release.

Here it is.... It did make it into the 2009 release.

<form action="alink.html"><input type="submit" value="Click Me." /></form>

Regards
Peter

OK so you have;



and if you add a 'class' to the input so you have



then you just add the class to your css



just modify or delete the declarations in the css to suit your needs

Heaven's.... David, I will set it up,
and take it down to see how it works.

Thankyou
Peter

You can style any of the form elements (text fields, buttons etc.) by using in-line styles or an external style sheet. If you don't yet know about CSS stuff, it is well worth learning the basics as it will revolutionise your web design. As David points out, you can tart up the button with whatever you like by changing the colour of the button, font and size and colour of the text, borders, rollovers and whatnot. You can even create your own hover buttons (there is a snippet on the share your snippets page) to carry out form actions so you are not tied to 'standard' buttons at all.

In the editor, if you type in the form tag then type style, options will be presented as to what you can alter to change the look of the element. See the attached code for just a few of the changes using in-line styles. Copy and paste this into the editor and have a play with the variables to create your own button.



Nice buggy by the way, yours?

Dave.
