I want to make a form which looks like this:
Column A Column B
1 Textbox AA Textbox BB
2 Textbox AA Textbox BB
I've coded it like this:
<form id="deps" name="deps" action="" method="POST">
<ul>
<li>
<span class="er"> </span>
</li> <br />
<li>
<div class="field"> </div>
<div class="field cv"><label for="met">A</label> </div>
<div class="field cv"><label for="eng">B</label> </div>
</li> <br />
<li>
<div class="field head"> <label for="bd">1</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="bdmm" id="bdmm" /> <label for="bdmm">M</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="bdinch" id="bdinch" /> <label for="bdinch">I</label> </div>
</li> <br />
<li>
<div class="field head"> <label for="sd">2</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="sdmm" id="sdmm" /> <label for="sdmm">M</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="sdinch" id="sdinch" /> <label for="sdinch">I</label> </div>
</li> <br />
<li>
<div class="field head"><label for="tw">TW</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="twkg" id="twkg" /> <label for="twkg">KG</label> </div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="twlbs" id="twlbs" /> <label for="twlbs">LBS</label></div>
</li> <br />
</ul>
<input type="submit" value="Calculate" onclick="getText();" />
</form>
CSS:
form{
padding:3px 0;
font-family: Georgia, arial, serif;
}
ul {
list-style: none;
}
ul li {
clear:both;
margin:0px;
padding:2px 0px;
vertical-align: middle;
}
input{
font-size: 1em;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px 8px;
border: solid 1px #E5E5E5;
outline: 0;
width: 100px;
}
input:focus {
border: solid 1px #8CDED7;
}
label {
margin: 2px;
padding: 2px;
text-align: right;
font-size: 1em;
text-shadow: 0px 1px 0px #e5e5ee;
display: inline-block;
}
label, input, h4 {
letter-spacing: 1.5px;
line-height: 20px;
font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman';
text-transform: uppercase;
}
.field {
float: left;
display:inline-block;
width: 200px;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.head {
padding-top: 5px;
}
.er {
font-size: 1em;
margin-right: 10px;
padding: 8px;
background: #CC0000;
color: #F7F7F7;
float:right;
}
.cv {
float: left;
}
input[type=submit]{
margin-top: 35px;
padding: 9px;
width: auto;
text-align: center;
cursor:pointer;
font-family: Georgia, arial, serif;
font-size: 1em;
color: #565463;
background: #8CDED7;
border: 2px solid #8CDED7;
text-shadow: 0px 1px 0px #e5e5ee;
}
This works fine as I want: http://jsfiddle.net/fdZnh/. But I would like to know, if putting a div in an unordered list is good practice or not? And anyway I can improve the CSS code?
