Hi

I am new to CSS and HTML, I want to try and create a registration form where i have a user enter details then submit to a database or if user click on reset it resets the fields.

Here is what I have done so far:

HTML

<html>
<body>

	<form tag="Create Logon">
		<div align="center">
			Username *: <input type="username" name="username" /><br />
			Password *: <input type="password" name="pwd" /><br />
			Surname *: <input type="surname" name="surname" /><br />
			Other Names *: <input type="other names" name="names" /><br />
			Date of Birth *: <input type="date of birth" name="dob" /><br />
			Email *: <input type="email" name="email" /><br />
			Telephone: <input type="telephone" name="tel" /><br />
			Address *: <input type="address" name="add" /><br />
			Post Code *: <input type="postcode" name="ptc" /><br />

		<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
		</div>
	</form>


<p>Note: Please make sure your details are correct before submitting form and that all fields marked with * are completed!.</p>


</body>
</html>

Also i want to make sure that the address field is big enough to enter full address in it in multiple lines rather than one long line. If if anyone could help me to align them as well so it looks nice that would be great.

Thanks in advance

This should get you going in the right direction...

XML

<!doctype html>
<html>
    <head>
        <style type="text/css">

            body {font-family:Arial, Sans-Serif;}

            #container {width:300px; margin:0 auto;}

            /* Nicely lines up the labels. */
            form label {display:inline-block; width:140px;}

            /* You could add a class to all the input boxes instead, if you like. That would be safer, and more backwards-compatible */
            form input[type="text"],
            form input[type="password"],
            form input[type="email"] {width:160px;}

            form .line {clear:both;}
            form .line.submit {text-align:right;}

        </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="container">
            <form>
                <h1>Create Logon</h1>
                <div class="line"><label for="username">Username *: </label><input type="text" id="username" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="pwd">Password *: </label><input type="password" id="pwd" /></div>
                <!-- You may want to consider adding a "confirm" password box also -->
                <div class="line"><label for="surname">Surname *: </label><input type="text" id="surname" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="other_names">Other Names *: </label><input type="text" id="names" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="dob">Date of Birth *: </label><input type="text" id="dob" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="email">Email *: </label><input type="email" id="email" /></div>
                <!-- Valid input types: http://www.w3schools.com/html5/html5_form_input_types.asp -->
                <div class="line"><label for="tel">Telephone: </label><input type="text" id="tel" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="add">Address *: </label><input type="text" id="add" /></div>
                <div class="line"><label for="ptc">Post Code *: </label><input type="text" id="ptc" /></div>
                <div class="line submit"><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></div>

                <p>Note: Please make sure your details are correct before submitting form and that all fields marked with * are completed!.</p>
