[thelist] aligning textarea and text

[Maximillian Schwanekamp]

------------------------------
I want to use CSS to align a textarea with the accompanying explanatory
text, thus:
  ------------------------   Please put the correct information
 |                        |  in the textarea. Spell correctly, 
 |                        |  because we're very fussy.
 |                        |
  ------------------------
------------------------------

Try this:

<div id="happy">
	<textarea name="mybox"></textarea>
	Please put the correct information in the textarea. 
	Spell correctly,  because we're very fussy.
</div>


div#happy {
width: 400px;
}
div#happy textarea {
width: 200px; 
height: 100px; 
float: left;
}

(Season to taste, of course)
