[SOLVED]Problems in form visualization

capitanluc 10 May, 2013
When the form is visualized, both from the frontend view command of the Form manager and embedding the form in an article, it doesn't start from the top of the screen. As you can see in the figure here below, it seems that it starts below the last item of the left column:

Is there anything that I can do to improve this?

Hi capitanluc,

Please check the page source code carefully. This is usually caused by problem with HTML or CSS. Make sure that the form is not wider than the space available; that all divs are properly closed; and that any CSS clear statements are doing what you expect.

Unfortunately, it seems that the problem is not related to custom HTML or CSS. In fact, the behavior is the same even if I create a menu item with only the form from the Joomla menu manager.
I created a simple test form with only a formatted test field and the result is the following:

The form code is the following

<div class="ccms_form_element cfdiv_header" id="id1_container_div" style="">
	<h1>FORM LAYOUT TEST </h1>
	<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<div class="ccms_form_element cfdiv_empty" id="empty_container_div" style="">
	<div class="clear"></div>
	<div id="error-message-empty"></div>
</div>

Do you have any suggestions?

Hi Luciano,

Only the same as before, though I said nothing about Custom HTML or CSS, it could just as easily be in your template design.

You were right! The problem was in the template.
Thank you.
