CSS style=display:block not working

Browser is Firefox.

I have a list of 15 radio buttons. After displaying them like this:

<div class="abcd"  style="margin-left:10px;">
    <form id='some'....>
        <legend>Select Item type :</legend>
        <fieldset style="display:block;float:left;">
            <input class="yy" id="sss" type="radio" name="group0" value="aaa"/> ABC
            ...
        </fieldset>
        <p>
            <input placeholder="Enter Name/Value" name="xxx" id="xxx" size="40" style="display:block;float:left;">
            <button type="button" id="xxx" style="width:100;">Process</button>
        </p>
    </form>
</div>

Everything is displaying in one line. I am not sure how to display the textbox under radio buttons with some space in between.?

pl help.

When using the float attribute you have to clear it so that other elements won't appear floating next to it. try adding clear: both to the css of the input box like this:

<input placeholder="Enter Name/Value" name="Name" id="NameID" size="40" 
style="clear:both; display:block;"/>

The problem with your style is the float: left, you have to clear the "floatness". At the p tag, include the clear:both, it tells the browser that nothing can float at its left or right.

<div class="abcd"  style="margin-left:10px;">
    <form id='some'>
        <fieldset style="display:block;float:left;">
            <input class="yy" id="sss" type="radio" name="group0" value="aaa"/> ABC

            <input class="yy" id="sss" type="radio" name="group0" value="aaa"/> ABC

            <input class="yy" id="sss" type="radio" name="group0" value="aaa"/> ABC

        </fieldset>
        <p style="clear:both">
            <input placeholder="Enter Name/Value" name="xxx" id="xxx" size="40" style="display:block;float:left;">
            <button type="button" id="xxx" style="width:100;">Process</button>
        </p>
    </form>
</div>

Try adding the css rule to the radio buttons themselves. Like this:

<style type="text/css">
.group0
{
    display:block;
}
</style>

This assumes group0 is the group with all the radio buttons.
