 * Hi. Can anyone point me in the right direction where I can edit the comment form.
   I am using a child of the ‘TwentyTen’ theme.
 * I have styled the fields for the entire site, which has caused issues for WordPress.
   You can see what’s happening here: [http://jerseyislandphotography.com/blog/?attachment_id=105](http://jerseyislandphotography.com/blog/?attachment_id=105)
 * Thanks
    Chris

 * [@esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/)! Thanks for the link, but 
   I am looking where I can edit the CSS I think! Where would I edit this?
 * Thanks

 * Via your theme’s stylesheet.

 * I have managed to access the CSS, but cant work out why the labels and submit
   button are to the right of the fields. I am trying to get it to work like this:
 * Label
    Field
 * rather than:
 * Field Label
 * Any ideas?

 * Remove `float:left;` from:
 *     ```
       input {
           color: #4A4A4A;
           float: left;
           margin: 8px 0 9px;
           padding: 4px 7px;
       }
       ```
   
 * in style.css

 * Wow! Thanks!
    The only problem I have now is that the comment label is dropping
   off the bottom. I dont know how to make it in the middle of the textarea.
 * How could I achieve this?

 * Try changing:
 *     ```
       .comment-form-comment label {
           display: inline-block;
           margin-right: 5px;
       }
       ```
   
 * to:
 *     ```
       .comment-form-comment label {
           display: block;
           margin-right: 5px;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks Esmi.
 * I think my explanation was not particularly clear. I am actually wanting the 
   comment label to site on the left of the textarea but in the middle or top, but
   not above.
 * I have tried everything I can think of with no success.

 * Tricky. I would try playing with the height/line-height of the specific label.
