Hi all. I am working on my first theme and have it almost as I like it with one exception: the standard submit forms are placed way down on the page: seemingly after the content finishes in the side panels (ie. the menus etc.).

Any thoughts on where to look for the problem? I've tried figuring out which css to alter but so far have been unsuccessful and there doesn't seem to be a list of standard css anywhere (I found information on styling cck forms but nothing on the standard drupal submit forms).

Thanks,

Shrill

Seems to me like you just have to look for the right tags to alter with some CSS like

position: relative;
top: -100px;

When trying to find out which tags to alter, right click on the site and let the Browser show you the source code. Search for some specific text in the code to find the right places. Don't know about your levels of html and css, so don't be mad at me if I tell you something you already know.
So look for the tags surrounding the elements you want to style. They probably have attributes like class=".." or id="..".
Then go to your style.css in the theme and add new code to the end like:

#some-id, div.some-class{
  position: relative;
  top: -100px;
}

Hope you can find a solution with this.

Hi you may have a look at http://drupal.org/project/firebug
a tool for Firefox that may help you a lot in figure out .css settings.
