How do I align the values that show up in the field to the right instead of the left. I've tried styles, divs etc and can't get it to work. It's not essential but it would make things look much nicer. Also I've never had to move the value before and online docs aren't helpin.

Alas, I don't think that's something that is possible to do with HTML and CSS.

I think he's asking for a way for the text in a form textfield to show up as right-aligned as a user types in data, right?

probably have to do it in JavaScript. Could do something like set the text field to a fixed width and use a fixed width font like Courier, then as the user types use a JS function to append the appropriate number of spaces to the front of the text field?

Yea Agentlion has the idea.

just a basic form field with a preset number in it... that can be changed. But i wanted it to align to the right instead of the left since it's cash. It just aesthetically looks bad.
