css - How to display HTML <FORM> as inline element?

Question

This is probably a basic html/css question...

I have a simple one-button form that I would like to display inline inside paragraph text.

<p>Read this sentence 
     <form style='display:inline;'>
     <input style='display:inline;' 
            type='submit' 
            value='or push this button'/>
     </form>.
</p>

Even though form has style=display:inline attribute, I get a linebreak before the form. Is there a way to get rid of it?

Can form elements appear inside <p>?

Answer 1

Move your form tag just outside the paragraph and set margins / padding to zero:

<form style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
  <p>

    <input style="display: inline;" type="submit" value="or push this button" />
  </p>
</form>
