I'm styling a form for a site and I need it to look like this -
My coded version, so far, looks like this -
The name & email sections for some reason won't size properly and there seems to be padding or margin properties somewhere which I can't seem to override. Here's my code as it stands -
form {
height: 200px;
width: 400px;
margin-right: 50px;
}
.name {
float: left;
}
input[type=text],
input[type=email] {
background: #F0F0F0;
font-size: 10px;
width: 100%;
height: 20px;
}
input[type=subject] {
background: #F0F0F0;
font-size: 10px;
width: 100%;
height: 20px;
}
textarea {
resize: vertical;
font-size: 10px;
width: 100%;
background: #F0F0F0;
height: 100px;
}
input[type=submit] {
background: #00bfff;
border: none;
color: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: 700;
width: 100%;
}
<div class="six columns">
<form>
<fieldset>
<div class="name">
<input type="text" required placeholder="NAME">
</div>
<div class="name">
<input type="email" required placeholder="EMAIL">
</div>
<div>
<input type="subject" placeholder="SUBJECT">
</div>
<div>
<textarea placeholder="MESSAGE..."></textarea>
</div>
</fieldset>
<input type="submit" value="SUBMIT">
</form>
</div>
UPDATE - Latest version.
I made a bunch of tweaks and kind of last track as I went, so I hope you're able to read through this and figure it out. If not, please feel free to ask questions!

Trying to figure out how to align some buttons to some input fields and it's tricky as hell. I couldn't figure it out.
I've found a lot of things online:
Align button to input with float?
Align button with input forms with labels
Make form button/text field same height in all browsers?
I know I will get a lot of minuses but I just can't get my head around this and I need help.
I've lost a whole day modifying values and I have no clue on how to position things in CSS. I can't understand it.
.big-box {
position: absolute;
width: 60%;
top: 40%;
left: 50%;
text-align: left;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
text-align: center;
}
.box-head {
width: 100%;
display: grid;
border-bottom: 6px solid red;
margin-bottom: 50px;
margin-top: 40px;
text-align: center;
}
.textbox {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 75%;
overflow: hidden;
font-size: 20px;
padding: 5px 0;
margin: 10px 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid red;
}
.textbox input {
border: none;
outline: none;
background: none;
color: white;
font-size: 18px;
width: 97%;
float: left;
margin: 5px 5px;
}
#button {
display: grid;
width: 25%;
background: none;
border: 2px solid red;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
font-size: 18px;
cursor: pointer;
}
<div id="logo"><img url="logo.png"></div>
<div class="big-box">
<div class="box-head">
<div class="title">
<h1>Configuration Page</h1>
</div>
</div>
<form method="post" action="/url" onSubmit="return saveValue();">
<div class="textbox">
<input type="url" placeholder="Enter URL" name="getURL" value="">
</div>
<input id="button" type="submit" value="Enter">
<div class="textbox">
<input type="number" placeholder="Brightness" name="getBrightness" value="">
</div>
<input id="button" type="submit" value="Enter">
</form>
</div>
EDIT: This is how I've fixed it:
I've changed from class to ID: #textbox;
I've put #textbox and #button inside div: #box-box;
I've added display: flex; to #box-box and display: grid; to
both #textbox and #button.
Added margin-left: 25px; to #button;
Here is the result.
Thanks #Flavio Caruso for the inspiration.

There is a few changes you have to do, you must insert the input button inside the div class 'textbox' and add a display:flex, then you ajust the css from button to inline-block and float right.
like that:
.big-box {
position: absolute;
width: 60%;
top: 40%;
left: 50%;
text-align: left;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
text-align: center;
}
.box-head {
width: 100%;
display: grid;
border-bottom: 6px solid red;
margin-bottom: 50px;
margin-top: 40px;
text-align: center;
}
.textbox {
display: flex;
float: left;
width: 75%;
overflow: hidden;
font-size: 20px;
padding: 5px 0;
margin: 10px 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid red;
}
.textbox input {
border: none;
outline: none;
background: none;
color: white;
font-size: 18px;
width: 97%;
margin: 5px 5px;
}
#button {
display: inline-block;
float: right;
width: 25%;
background: none;
border: 2px solid red;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
font-size: 18px;
cursor: pointer;
}

I have a contact form that has a width of 45% of the parent div. Instead of white space next to it, I'd like to add a coloured div (a square grid) and add some relevant info within said coloured div. However, with my current code, I'm, unable to get the form and div inline.
I've read some SO posts this one, but they are unable to assist (maybe it's the way I have my current CSS code)
#contact {

This question already has answers here:
Align inline-block DIVs to top of container element
(5 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
This is probably a stupid question, but it has been driving me crazy the whole day. I need both divs with the class of contacthor to be aligned on the top, but not forcing them by using margin-top: -x or etc. Here is an image of the issue.
Also, Im new to web design so if I have useless code please explain.
Thanks.

I would agree with Chere's answer in that you should be using something like CSS Grid or Flexbox. However, if you want to stay simple for this example, or just want to know why your code isn't working, here is a solution:
#redcontact {
margin-bottom: 0;
padding-left: 5vh;
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 30px;
background: black;
}
.contacthor {
display: inline-block;
}
form>.contacthor>.input {
color: #C5B358;
font-size: 15px;
background-color: black;
margin-top: 0;
margin-left: 1vh;
margin-bottom: 1vh;
height: 30px;
width: 190px;
display: block;
}
.contacthor>textarea {
color: #C5B358;
font-size: 15px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
width: 60vh;
height: 25vh;
background: black;
border: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-radius: 3px;
border-color: grey;
padding-left: 4px;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 1vh;
margin-left: 1vh;
}
.contacthor>p {
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 1vh;
margin-left: 1vh;
}
.contacthor>input[value=enviar] {
display: block;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 1vh;
margin-left: 1vh;
}
/* ===== Styles to fix example ===== */
label, p {
color: white;
}
/* ===== Styles to answer your question ===== */
.contacthor {
vertical-align: top;
}
<div id="redcontact">
<form action="action_page.php">
<div class="contacthor">
<label for="name">Nombre</label>
<input class="input" type="text" name="name_user" placeholder="test">
<label for="org">Empresa</label>
<input class="input" type="text" name="org" placeholder="test">
<label for="mail">Mail</label>
<input class="input" type="text" name="mail" placeholder="contacto#test.com">
</div>
<div class="contacthor">
<p>Mensaje</p>
<textarea name="mensaje" tabindex="5" placeholder="text..."></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="enviar">

</form>
</div>
The main thing to take away from this is the addition of vertical-align: top. Here is a similar question and here is the documentation for the vertical-align property.
Note: I think there may have been some CSS missing, so the snippet looks a bit odd and I had to make a couple of unrelated changes.
Why is there a . before the input?
Also, I highly recommend not using vh or pixels. You should go with em. Without doing everything, you should probably try to do something like that, with flexbox.
#redcontact {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 1.5;
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
}
form {
display: flex;
padding: 2em;
.contacthor {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
width: 50%;
padding: 0 2em;
input,
textarea {
color: #C5B358;
background-color: transparent;
margin-left: 1em;
margin-bottom: 1em;
padding: 0.5em 1em;
width: auto;
display:block;
}
input {
border: 0;
}
textarea {
border: 1px solid grey;
border-radius: 3px;
}
}
}
I have made a grid. See if you are looking for somewhat similar thing.

}
.contacthor{
display:grid;grid-gap:10px;
}
textarea{
height:100px;
}
input[type=submit]{
width:120px;
}
p{
padding:0px;
}
input[type=text]{
background:black;
color:;border:none;
}
Markup :

Try adding vertical-align: top; to contracthor.
Extra margin from a paragraph tag is forcing a button downwards. I am trying to understand why.
Here's one answer I tried looking to find an answer from : is it a bug? margins of P element go outside the containig div, however the answer quotes "collapsing margins" but I don't understand why that would be a correct answer, as margins don't seem to be collapsing in this case but expanding.
I understand the problem can be fixed by giving the paragraph tag a margin of 0, but I want to know why the margin is bleeding, and (if is due to margin collapse), a more verbose explanation from the other answer..

There isn't a problem with the margin of the p-tag.
Your #messagesArea height is too high. You can fix it by decreasing it to height: 338px; as shown in the example below:
.body {
height: 100%;
}
.error {
color: red;
}
#chatbox {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
background-color: #93ff95;
border: 1px solid black;
}
#loginContainer {
text-align: right;
height: 50px;
line-height: 50px;
}
#loginContainer input {
height: 25px;
font-size: 16px;
}
input#login {
text-transform: uppercase;
background: none;
color: blue;
border: none;
}
#loginForm {
margin: auto;
display: block;
}
#messagesArea {
height: 338px;
background-color: white;
padding: 5px;
}
#messageBox {
height: 100px;
padding: 1px 1px;
}
#messageForm {
display: none;
}
#messageBoxBlocked {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border: none;
border-radius: 5px;
padding: 0;
margin: none;
}

<div id="loginContainer">

<input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Enter a username"/>

The "login the enter chat" button is supposed to fit inside the messageBox div, but is (visually) way bigger than messageBox. I even made padding and margin 0 but it did not change anything.
What is the culprit here (besides myself)?
#chatbox {

}

text-transform: uppercase;

margin: auto;
display: block;

}

The p element inside your #messagesArea has a margin values.
The #messagesArea has padding.
Remove these two and you are done :)
#messagesArea {
padding: 0;
}
#messagesArea p {
margin: 0;
}
Here is a working example:
#chatbox {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
background-color: lime;
border: 1px solid black;
}
#loginContainer {
text-align: right;
height: 50px;
line-height: 50px;
}
#loginContainer input {
height: 25px;
font-size: 16px;
}
input#login {
text-transform: uppercase;
background: none;
color: blue;
border: none;
}
#loginForm {
margin: auto;
display: block;
}
#messagesArea {
height: 350px;
background-color: white;
padding: 0;
}
#messagesArea p {
margin: 0;
}
#messageBox {
height: 100px;
padding: 1px 1px;
}
#messageForm {
display: none;
}
#messageBoxBlocked {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border: none;
border-radius: 5px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}

Note - if you do need these margin/padding values - make sure you set the container (#chatbox) with the correct height value. In your case - it should be 512px - it will include the padding of the #messageArea and the border of the #messageBox).
