present the Single line text in a different maner

Hi,

i have a small requirement in the forms design , got forms like that ( the dots will contain the information):

First Name: ...................................................................
Last Name: .................................................................

i want to achieve this with a one component (single line text, and use it label attribute ) , in fact i can easly do it by using 2 elements: one output text and one single line text (but i will loose the combined data(label + information) contained in one xml tag which can pretty usefull if i want to process the label and their data by a third system).

NB: the result i want to achieve http://snag.gy/vzRiY.jpg with one component

and thanks

Not sure I understand. Is the requirement that you want to see dots?

Re: present the Single line text in a different maner

hi Eric

the dots are the value field of input text:

by default: when using the component (single line text) , the label text is placed in top of the input field.

want i to have:

Name: (label at the left of the form) Erik (the value of the input at the
right of the form)

please see my requirement in the following link http://snag.gy/mHV0A.jpg (and i want to achieve it with one component)

and thanks a lot

Hi,

I assume that you're asking the question in the context of a form you
created with Form Builder. The default CSS that comes with Form
Builder / Form Runner put the label on top of the fields (vertical
layout) rather than to the left of the fields (horizontal layout). The
HTML markup Orbeon Forms generates allows you to write CSS to get an
horizontal layout, but at this point we don't provide that CSS with
Orbeon Forms. If you or someone in your team is a CSS wiz, you can
write that CSS yourself, and in the future we would like to have that
CSS bundled with Orbeon Forms, so you can just choose, in Form
Builder, if the form should use a vertical or horizontal layout.

orbeon on internet explorer 8 bug

In reply to this post by Alessandro Vernet

Hi,

When running:

Orbeon Forms 3.9.1.201202031753 PE

out of the box (with just an evaluation license added to the war file) and using Internet Explorer 8, I get the following when viewing orbeon/fr/orbeon/builder/summary or any other summary for a form made with builder:

As you can see, the table is empty, while something should definitely be in it (It works fine on chrome, showing the contact form and another form I made).
Is there a fix to make the builder/runner work OK in IE, or at least in the newer versions ? Or will this be fixed in the next stable release?

FYI: I'm running it on tomcat 6, Ubuntu ( Linux 2.6.38 ), and deployed the war using the tomcat manager webapp. The logging probably does not work as I did not configure it.

Koen,

Absolutely it should work with IE.

In fact, I just tried the latest code with IE 8 and the summary page displays properly. So I don't know what the problem might be in your case: maybe a bad build? Can you try with a newer build?
