sizing form element

[TheConeHead]

I have a textbox that I want to fit perfectly in a cell, but it also has text... If I size it width:100%, it takes 100% size of the cell - what I want is for it to be sized from where it is (after the text) over to the right side of the textbox... make sense? How do I do that?

You'd need to know a few things:
[ol]
[li]Size of the cell[/li]
[li]The percentage of the text for that cell[/li]
[li]what kind of space you'd like to have between the text and the beginning of the text box[/li]
[/ol]

Once you have all that, just create a style for the form that gives the remaining percentage width for the size of your text box.

This could also be done using ems.
