I have never used CSS before, but from reading on your site, I believe that is how I will accomplish what I'm looking for.



On this test site, I am using the Forms module to create a form for one of our departments. I need to add vertical space between fields, and do not have enough rows available (50 max) to insert a blank Label field between each line as I have done on some smaller forms.

Can any of you who are more familiar with this module and CSS tell me what I need to do to make this happen?

Additionally, though less importantly, is there a way to format each rows alignment individually? I don't like how things like MI and ST get bumped right up next to the field on their right, but are SO far away from the field on their left. How can I control actual cell sizes, alignment, etc. Is this CSS as well? I only know HTML.

Steve I hope you are using the term "formatting tutorial" loosely otherwise I don't know how to follow tutorials.  I too am not a css expert and am having issues trying to get instruction on formatting a form.... the  "formatting tutorial" seems to just be a list of classes.. is that right or am I missing something....  I'm trying to figure out how to change the inner tables and outer tables padding independently.  thanks

I think the instructions are pretty clear, and so do many other users of Form Master.

I feel there is no need for snide remarks.

Have you downloaded and studied the sample forms?

Did you see the part where you can separate class names with a semi-colon ";" and the first class name is applied to the form control and the second class is applied to the containing cell?

Settings --> Form Settings "Table Class" is applied to the outer Table

Settings --> Other Settings "Main Form Table Class" Applies to the Table which contains the form elements

There are many good tutorials on using CSS on the internet.
