Probably very basic CSS question

Hello everyone,

I'm a bit new to this whole website design thing so please forgive the idiotness of my question.

I've put together this website but am having problems with two types of comment boxes. The wordpress comment boxes seem to need display:inline to work correctly and the plogger comment boxes seem to need display:block to work correctly.

I'm not very good at locating how to assign styles in the PhP code for these pages, so is there another way to work around it?

You can see an example of a wordpress comment box here (currently wonky) and a plogger one here (other things are wonky, butt he comments box is ok!)

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance
Jon

Re: Probably very basic CSS question

Can you simply assign the WP boxes a new ID, then apply the necessary styles to it?

For instance:
<textbox id="wp-comment" cols="xx" rows="xx" ... ></textbox>

Then in the CSS file:
textbox#wp-comment {display:inline; other values/properties}
