Cursors in the wrong place in a form field

[zonkd]

Sometimes a form I have in a webpage accepts text in the middle of a field, as though it was aligned Centre. (Or center)

Sometimes it accepts the cursor on the left, as it should.

When I look at the code for forms acting correctly and those not, I can't see any difference.

So if there a way to ensure that the cursor starts aligned to the left, please, Experts?

Could you not just set the align value in every textbox that you make? So that then there can be no way that the text can be anywhere else

{text-align: center;}
{text-align: left;}

If the field you are referring to is a TEXTAREA then make sure there's no newline inbetween the start and end tags in the source HTML.

Thanks, Iguana, I think you have found it. (I'll check it tonight.)

Thanks, Scally_Ally. I think Iguana has found the fault. But perhaps better not to use tags if Iguana's suggestion is the fault. Cheers, gentlemen.
