Hi editor,

first I see your code created with V3.0 then why you installed V2.5 ? all you needed to do is to patch your V3.0 installation!

let me know!

Hi dimi,

This is a CSS conflict, if you have V3.1 RC2 then try to "transform" your form to "theme1"

Hi Max,

is there any chance in fixing the problem? The default theme ist way more "space" efficient due to putting the labels and the input areas in the same line.

Thx for your help.
Cheers

Hi Blueglow,

The 'big space' happens when the second field is pushed down below bottom of the side column (the left one in this case). Sometimes this is a misplaced <div>, sometimes it's because of the height:auto css.

It can usually be fixed by a little patient work with the css for the form and the template.
