I'm planning on working on a GeoServer UI Development guide sometime
real soon, but until we have something to point people at the guide is
quite simple:
When you are building a form, group all the elements like so:
<ul>
<li>
<label for="fieldname"><wicket:message key="namekey">Default
Name</wicket:message></label>
<input wicket:id="fieldname" type="text"></input>
</li>
</ul>
(in the case of radio buttons and checkboxes, the label comes after the
input; for all other elements it should be before it.)
For everything else, there is not a well-established set of practices so
just ask in the IRC channel; tenzochris is our current CSS guru (but he
won't be available to us for too much longer.)
