796837 - Style the question reply field like the rest of the textareas

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Bram Pitoyo [:bram]]

My mockup shows a question reply textarea that’s composed of a white background with no border. This caused a usability problem because it has low affordance.

This means that, even though we already write “Post a Reply” above, and “Enter your reply here” inside, the reply textarea itself doesn’t look like a textarea, so it might not be obvious enough for users that he should click it and then type a response.


The fix is to make the textarea look like a standard textarea used elsewhere on SUMO.

.answers #question-reply textarea {
	/* erase every other properties, except for the two below */
	margin-top: 10px;
	width: 510px;
}


David, this is a fix for your comment on bug 762255 comment 190. Thank you for bringing it up. It is something that I had overlooked.
