Form

Hi,

I am implementing this form here:

http://alistapart.com/d/prettyaccessibleforms/example_3/

The js files are loading fine, I have added the code into the a new document page (wysiwyg editor disabled), I have also added the related css, the problem is (maybe others can try this) that the input fields are not aligned correctly. I have tried implementing the code outside of modx and it works fine.

Hope someone can help

Thanks

I’ve not figured this out, is there something in modx that might be causing the input fields to not align?

Thanks

No... would be a css issue most likely.

I have stripped out all of my existing css, still no joy. Not to worry, I am in the process of trying out a different one, out of interest, are there any good contact forms for modx, ones that don’t rely on tables and are customisable?

Thanks
Lee

Have you tried the one included in the 095 distribution?

Also FYI, after considering forms and forms-markup for a long time, and being somewhat inclined towards web standards solutions, I use a slight tweak of the following styling for my forms: http://nidahas.com/2006/12/06/forms-markup-and-css-revisited/

My my, thats looks like just the ticket for me, what changes do you make to the form?

Going to try it now, thanks for the link

Some minor tweaks are made to address a few odd input formats, but all in all I agree completely with the general overall structure. I definitely use the label.controlset version mentioned in comment 4 there.

rthrash, I know i am being cheeky here but is there any chance you can mail me the form processor script that you used for the form?

I know, sorry

Thanks
Lee

It’s eform, installed by default with 095.

No problem, I have been playing around with eForm, just struggling to get eForm integrated with the form you linked to, maybe I’ll read up on the eForm documentation.

Thanks
