Re: form output in CSS

Are you asking for CSS advice? If not and you're asking about databases, you may be in the wrong place. If you are asking about CSS, could you clear up your question a bit. I'd be glad to help you with styling...

Dhosai is obviously asking for CSS style help as what I understand from his post..

I don't think that you could use CSS to output your data!
People always say, "Table are for displaying data and CSS is for Page Layout!" It's true...!

You can display data in table form (nothing wrong with that!) but you could style your table using CSS (the cell color, border color, background color, margin, padding and so on... thats what people always do...)

Hope that help you..

Re: form output in CSS

Thank you all. Yes, obviously I was looking for CSS help. I know I could user table but I was wondering when you submit form the action file search the database and bring the result, but I could not get the result in the table witing CSS file. Anyway folks, I have found the way and was able to do it using <style type="text/css" </style> and both file ( I mean form and form processing file) I had to use .php extension.

That's what the problem is all about in the first place..
We thought you wanted to display your database information in a CSS formated page rather that in the table formated page.

Yeah, you must use a server side scripting language (PHP or ASP) in order for you to display your database in your "display" page.... You can't display them using only basic HTML page.

Thanks for the clarification, good to know you solved them
