156 PointsUsing CSS to style HTML forms
Are there any lessons on here that specifically handle the issue of styling HTML forms using CSS?

Styling HTML forms using CSS isn't the best because internal styles take priority over external styles (< link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" >) And you want to use external styles because they are a lot more flexible than internal styles.

156 PointsSam, thanks. That appears like it may be very helpful. i've saved that link to my desktop. Any other help you can give is welcomed. Again, thanks.
Ethan, short of me not knowing anything about CSS, I think the fact that I mentioned CSS would infer the use of an external stylesheet. I was just asking HOW to do it, given that it is a little different than normal. I wasn't sure if there weren't maybe some realities I'd not know being totally ignorant on the subject and having never tried it.
