Hi Eric,

There will be a new release of Form Wizard Pro along with the coming release of mojoPortal. In the new version of Form Wizard Pro you will be able to add a custom css class in settings that will be added to the container div of the form, this way you can style different forms differently from CSS.

No, I don't want to add hard coded styles in settings, but it allows you to style a form different from others via css by using the extra wrapper class to make a more specific css selector.

Like you might have something like this for setting the textbox width

.qtext input { width: 300px; }

but on a specific form you could add a custom class say narrowform, then you could use

.narrowform .qtext input { width:150px; }

this is a more specific selector and it would be best for it to appear lower in the css file than the default style rule.

Best,

Joe

Hi Eric,

I get what you mean about making it a setting users can adjust but once we start down that path of allowing users to put hard coded styles it takes control of the design away from the designer and skinning no longer applies. I'm not ruling it out that I will never do this, but I can say that in other places where I have done this for better reasons, like in the Event Calendar Pro where users can choose colors for each event in calendar view, I still have received feedback from some users who would rather that was all controlled by css.

Actually even without the new custom CSS class coming in the next release of Form Wizard Pro, you could make sure forms in side columns have smaller fields currently like this:

.leftside .qtext input, .rightside .qtext input { width:150px; }

so you could do this today in the current release of Form Wizard Pro.

Best,

Joe
