Custom Submit Button Alignment

[TigerGirl7]

Hello,

I'm having difficulty getting a custom submit button to align with the bottom of a text field - like the search feature on this site. For some reason when I add the button I'm getting about 5 pixels of space beneath the button. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance!

It depends opn how you are adding it, but I'd start by removing all padding and margins from the button, and the textfield.

Thanks for your reply. It's really strange - here is my code:

<td><strong>Patient Search</strong>
<input name="textfield" type="text" size="35" />
<input type="image" name="imageField" src="images/button_go.gif" />
</td>

Its a table.

Make cellpadding and cellspacing for the table 0px, and make all padding and margins for the textboxes, and the submit button 0 also.

<table ... cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">...

hi thanks for your help. I ended up having to break the table into two columns - that seemed to do the trick. thanks again.

Hi there,

I was wondering did you figure out your problem. Did you by any chance do a layout with Fireworks or did you build the site totally in dreamweaver. I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out, after completing layout in FW, I have an area with Username, Password field with Box for entering text...but how do I get that to work in DW. As DW has its own code for form fields.

Does that make sense?
