Hi,
you posted to
wrong topic!
Should be support!
I think the form size is hardcoded. I don't know exactly but i think so...
Heiko...

You certainly can do something like
Code: Select all
form#newsletterSubscribeForm .inputNewsletter {
background-color: #FFEDAF;
font-weight: normal;
color: #222222;
border: 0.1em solid #222222;
padding: 0.2em;
width: 12em;
height:0.8em;
font-size:0.8em;
line-height:1em;
margin-bottom:0.3em;
margin-top:0.5em;
}
just an example. Play with width, height and font-size - very funny and interesting results, depending on each other... at least yours wanted is possible too

Heiko...
Sorry, maybe moderator can move this topic to right section...
And, yes, I think it is hardcoded. I did searching through all css, and when I didn't find anything, I tried with help here...
Thanks.

Hi baklavoni
Yes, it must be the class .inputNewsletter in the frontend.css (or the css-file you defined in the template).
I have a simple code like this
Code: Select all
.inputNewsletter {
border-bottom:
0px dotted #FF0000;
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;
color:596d86;
width: 155px;
}
and when you play with width it should show you a result.
If not, please ask again.
Tom

I think that the code is correctly set up, because for me it is working
but you -of course- can simplify it like krailing did, if you don't have a wrapping #newsletterSubscribeForm
Code: Select all
.inputNewsletter {
background-color: #FFEDAF;
font-weight: normal;
color: #222222;
border: 0.1em solid #222222;
padding: 0.2em;
width: 12em;
height:0.8em;
font-size:0.8em;
line-height:1em;
margin-bottom:0.3em;
margin-top:0.5em;
}

}

I took Tom's code and put in there some of your code

I got mixture of two codes...
Thank you both.
