Hello all,

I have created a nice lengthy form using Frontpage (YUCK) but anyways I had it set up into a table with 2 columns. 1 Column(left) with the questions asked and the other column(right) with the choices/selections/etc. Everything looked in proper format via the Preview button of FP, but once I put the form into Chrono Forms everything shifted to the center and looks very unprofessional. This is to be used by a business and need to get it to look as professional as possible.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much in advance.

Do you have the form tags in the form code area? Frontpage puts weird formbot stuff in there, and you're not supposed to use the form tags anyway. Can you show the example of the form you are talking about?

The stylesheet of your template may be affecting the layout too.

Just ideas, I'm no expert, but if you post a link to the form, or show the code. Sometimes you just look at stuff so long you get bleary-eyed.

Hi Cheryl,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I did find out it is more an Internet Explorer issue as I opened it up in FF and it looks pretty good.

I checked the code and the form tags are not used so I knew that wasn't gonna be an issue though, LOL.

Hi Chevy21,

I havent used FrontPage for years but MS generally doesn't produce very clean html. The most likely cause is that there was some css associated with your form in FrontPage that is no longer being loaded in Joomla. Is this possible?

Later: looking at your form you have <center> tags and <div align="center"> all over the place. The <center> tag is deprecated in favour of using css styling. I'd guess that IE is taking notice of them and FF is ignoring them.
