I am working to a tight deadline, trying to learn Web Form Builder and Responsive Site Designer in a matter of days. Hard! I am almost there, but have an odd problem. I can publish my form OK, but when I load it into my browser (from my live web site, not a preview) I get the whole form displayed TWICE, once hard against the left margin and then again a couple of inches in and below the previous one.

How could I have done this? It is linked to a database on Mailchimp, but I don't think that's the problem.

Partial screen grab attached. Any help much appreciated!

Are you loading it to your server as a stand alone or embedded into RSD ?
If Embedded then I would I suspect that has more to do with the RSD side than WFB.. To Be of more assistance we would be better able to assist if we could see the RSD project file if that is the way you have loaded it onto your site

Hi Philip,
Can you provide a link to the actual page with the issue so we can see it?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This is a site I built for my work.(RSD)

As so often happens, you pore over something for hours without success, post a message on a forum asking for help - and then suddenly discover the answer!

It was a trivial mistake on my part. When initially trying to connect the web form with my RSD project, I had copied the script into the Page Settings Head field. Subsequently, I created an HTML element and copied the script into there, which worked. But I failed to remove the original code, so it was actually in there twice.

It seems obvious now, but it wasn't at the time!

Thanks for your responses anyway.
