First, thank you for the application, so far it looks like it could save me a lot of php writing. I am having one issue that I have been unable to find an answer for yet. I have a rather large form and would like to have multiple fields in the same row such as
Last_Name First_Name Middle_Initial
rather than
Last_Name
First_Name
Middle_Initial
is this possible, and if so what manual (rtfm) should I be reading? Thanks for any assistance.

Hi Phil,

Currently this can be done, but not through the standard config files. You must use style sheets for this. I am pressed for time to give an example now, but will try to come up with one tomorrow.

Thanks Steve, If you get time an example would be great, in the mean time I will take a look and see if I can figure it out.

Hi Phil,

I have written a short how-to on this subject at http://framework.weblite.ca/documentation/how-to/how-to-make-fields-display-inline

Note that in this how-to, the first thing to do is to download a patch if your Dataface version is earlier than 0.5.3r2. That language is just to future-proof the how-to. The latest release is 0.5.3r2, so you will have to download the patch.

Best regards

Steve
