Hi Jeremie,

Yes, that's the right way to do it and it's what we have already been doing
ourselves.

I`ve updated the document to:

"Obs: The CSS classes have as parent the .xform class. This is supposed to
be used on the form tag, but if the styling is done inside dynamically
generated structures it can be used on other elements, like divs, as long
as the element remains the parent for the other form components. For
instance, a common use case is when you design a form that is to be used in
inline edit mode, you have to wrap it in a div element and use
class='.xform' on the div instead of the form. This is needed because in
inline edit mode your form element will not be rendered and, instead, your
page will be wrapped inside the main inline edit form."

Hope it's clearer now.

Thanks,
Eduard
