In ruby on rails i try to force the from\_tag to have a margin of 0 but  
it doesn’t seem to work. Forms always seem to have a margin inside a  
table.

\<% form\_remote\_tag :url =\> {:controller =\> "sgpanel", :action =\> "remove\_from\_cart", :id =\> product.id,:ad =\> product.sguser\_id, :class =\> "formnomargin"} do %\> \<%= submit\_tag "Remove item" , :class =\> "medium" %\>

input.formnomargin  
{  
padding:0;  
vertical-align: bottom;  
margin:0;  
}

input.medium  
{  
font-size:12px;  
width:85px;  
padding:0;  
vertical-align: bottom;  
margin-bottom:0;  
}

the default display mode of a form emlement is block, put it inline  
form{display:inline}
