Editing the comment field names on theme (3 posts)

    Hi!

    The name of each field in my comment section is not lined up right.
    If you go to my site http://www.momswithcharm.com and try to leave a comment as a non registered user you'll see that it looks like the second field is where you put your name and the third field is your email, but really you need to put your name in the 1st box.

    I want to adjust the "text" so that the first field has "name" above it, the second field has "email" above, etc. I have gone into the comment.php, etc in the code and I cant find where the text is listed to edit. Please help!! People are having a hard time leaving comments because they are misled by it and thinking their name goes in the second box and its giving them an error message.

    could work with changes to the style.css of your theme:

    change here ( add position:relative; top:-50px;) :

    #commentform label {display: block;clear: right;font-size: 1.1em;
    position:relative;
    top:-50px; }

    and add this new line after the one before:
    #commentform .firstresponse { margin-bottom:50px; }

    only checked in firefox, no guarantee for other browsers.
