How do you add a class to a form_for helper in rails 3?

This is what i currently have in my form partial

<%= form_for @short, :html => {:class => "hello"} do |f| %>

and then in my css 

#hello{
padding-top: 21px;
}

Does anyone know why this isnt working? I've seen this as an answer on several questions on here.

Please let me know if i can include anything else that might lead to figuring this out.

Css is included on the layout.html.erb page, I'm not really sure what else I can rule out.

Thank you in advance

It's easy, in your css you need to write .hello {} for a class (a dot in front of your class name). # is for id's
