killing padding around forms

[redhead]

hi

im trying to get rid of the padding around <form> tags (in IE at least)... can anyone help?

ive tryed:

form {
padding: 0px;
border: 0px;
}

but it doesnt seem to do anything...

if anyone can help that would be grand :thumbsup:

whoops... my bad

for future referance that should be:

form {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}

its fine now... thanks if youve been looking

what you have put should work just fine :)

Are you sure it isn't another element...? Such as, what is the form contained in, has that element got margins and padding set? (e.g. a div, or even just the document body). And, what elements are inside the form...? Are they creating too much space?

Try setting a background color on your form so you can see exactly how big it is - that may give you a clue :)
