I maintain a module called formdefaults that adds and alters descriptive text and labels on forms using the formalter hook. There is a known compatibility issue with CCK that I haven't had the time to get to the bottom of, but the module does allow you to add arbitrary markup fields as instructions to any form.

I'd love help fleshing this out if that fits your use case.

Meet me in the form defaults issue queue if that's the case.

Hi Ezra

Once defined, a CCK text field shows up as a label and a form field to enter text. Optionally you can add a helptext which shows underneath the form field. You can think of the CCK Description Field as a text (or any other cck field) without the form filed. It just shows the label and/or the helptext.

I'm going to use this for forms which have a lot of descriptional text between the form fields.

Hope this makes things more clear.

Hi Ernst,

Can you clarify how this would differ from the existing CCK textfield (included with the CCK download)?

Regards,

Ezra

Hi Drupalfriends

I'm looking for a way of adding descriptive text to a cck form for non programmers. I though of a CCK field which adds descriptive text to the form, but does not provide any possibility to enter data by the end user. I'm ready to code this module, but want to make sure nothing similar does exist already.

Thanks for your feedback.
Ernst
