Order Form designed with the old version.
Granted, with the new version, the 'Friendly Hints' tidy up a lot the the advisory text but I am REALLY struggling with the lack of WYSIWYG!
I think I'm correct in saying that a lot of my problems seem to be caused by html allowing only one space between text.
i.e. Section 1, Hirer Details, Select Village/Town - When you click the drop down box, The Zones are neatly arranged to the right. Whereas in the new version, the spaces aren't recognised and it's all jumbled.
I have improved this by placing the Zones in brackets i.e. Abthorpe, Towcester, Northants. (Zone 5), which is acceptable.
However, the problem becomes more acute when I get down to Section 4, Skip/Material Details, Skip 1 - Drop Down Selection.
I have tried taking out some of the repeated words from the drop down selection and placing them in a header above the drop down box 'SIZE TYPE DESCRIPTION OF WASTE' etc...
I can then, with a lot of editing, get the options list tidy but now I am struggling to get the header lined up to match the data in the drop down box, even if I use a Plain Text Element. It seems to be all down to the html 'one space' or the 20% width not being low enough.
I've tried the check box element as an alternative to the drop down box but again, it's a problem getting everything neatly lined up!
I can edit the exported Order Form using html editor to add Non-breaking-Spaces as required but then how would I re-open the form in lite for future additions/editing?
Am I simply asking too much, being too impatient (i.e. wait for the full version) or do you have any other suggestions?
Cheers
