Forms Using CSS With Or Without Tables
I”ve been hunting around for articles with good examples for creating/manipulating forms using CSS. I am ideally trying to find good stuff on doing this without using tables and in the course of my trolling around came across a great article on Sitepoint for styling with or without tables.
I also encountered a nice article on Macromedia’’s web site on this subject. This article touches on dealing with Netscape 4 when styling form elements, showing a way to use two different style sheets.

Bryan, thanks a lot for the pointer I’ll certainly be taking a look and I assume others will.

Have a play with the HTML from my blog. It’s all CSS including the forms for the comments, etc. http://www.cfm-applications.com/

Andy thanks for that link. It’s interesting displays perfectly in IE6 but in Mozilla Firefox the Company details part moves to the bottom right. I think that is one challenge with table-less forms in CSS at present.
