How to edit the size of the submit button on a form?

Hi I don't want an image for my submit button so I have gone with the default submit button but I want to edit its width and height. How do I do that?

<input type="submit" id="search" value="Search"  />

Thanks!

James


just use style attribute with height and width option

<input type="submit" id="search" value="Search"  style="height:50px; width:50px" />

Using CSS you can set a style for that specific button using the id (#) selector:

#search {
    width: 20em;  height: 2em;
}

or if you want all submit buttons to be a particular size:

input[type=submit] {
    width: 20em;  height: 2em;
}

or if you want certain classes of button to be a particular style you can use CSS classes:

<input type="submit" id="search" value="Search" class="search" />

and

input.search {
    width: 20em;  height: 2em;
}

I use ems as the measurement unit because they tend to scale better.


Change height using:

input[type=submit] {
  border: none; /*rewriting standard style, it is necessary to be able to change the size*/
  height: 100px;
  width: 200px
}
