I'm trying to use css and forms together and for some reason when I click the submit button I'm not redirect. Heres the code from a basic page I'm working on.

Code: 
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<form action="test.php" method="POST">

<input type="text" class="default-style" name="edit"
style="position:absolute; top:128; left:290; width:200; height:23; padding:0;overflow:hidden">

<input type="button" class="default-style" name="button" value="Submit" style="position:absolute; top:326; left:339; width:100; height:24; padding:0; overflow:hidden">

</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Any help greatly appretiated, thanx in advance!!!

Try changing the input type to "submit" instead of "button" type.

Code: 
<input type="[red]submit[/red]" class="default-style" name="button" value="Submit" style="position:absolute; top:326; left:339; width:100; height:24; padding:0; overflow:hidden">

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

Thanx, sorry about the stupid mistake! :)

And add some units to your css values. How do you suppose the browser should know how big your button should be or where it should lie? The specified number of pixels, percents, inches, centimeters, points or something entirely different?
