Padding around form fields

[Neil]

Hi, using css is it possible to add white space above and below a form
field like say, a textarea or a text input field? If so, could you
perhaps point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Neil

padding would be inside the form field - between the border and the
content, as with all other HTML elements.
margin would be outside the border.

But browsers vary in how much they apply styles to form elements so
experiment.

Yup, that's what I thought.

Thanks Steve
