Newbie having problems with displaying forms

Post by Muscleworx »

Excuse my total ignorance but I'm trying to figure this out as I go.

Very new to CMSMS (in fact anything web) and have successfully got it running (http://www.imaginemedia.co.nz/cms_glen/) using the default ShadowMenu left + 1 column layout and Formbuilder 0.6.1

Problem is the forms are all displayed like there is no style sheet? (if thats the correct way of saying it) and not nice and aligned etc. On my other site where I've used the Freshmedia template my forms all work and display okay.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I guess you've sorted it out by now, but from the look of your contact form, I would say you have a table based template. Of course, you can control its appearance through CSS, but I would recommend a CSS-based template to do so.

In formbuilder, once you clicked on one of your forms to edit it, you have a "form template" tab. On the top of this tab, you can choose various built-in template from a drop-down.

If you choose the default-template it will be all CSS based and there you can add your classes and edit in your css stylesheet to control its display.

Or you can use tables...
