Re: [web2py] FORM helper - formstyle='table2cols'

Thanks for the tip.  I've switched to using SQLFORM with no data updates 
for my purpose now and it is much closer to what I want.  Only problem 
now is that the input field lengths are getting set to 280px and I can't 
find how to override them.  I'm just trying a bunch of different things 
now to see if I can control it.  More tips always welcome....

Thanks again.

Then if still not above you can make it above by css and the 
appropriate div class of id... Look at you generate html view source 
file. Ctrl+U in most nav

    Hi

    Looking for help with form generation.  I have:

        form = FORM(LABEL('Name', _for='permissionName'),
                    INPUT(_type='text', __name='permissionName',
                          _id='permissionName',
                          _style="width:150px;", _class='listPanelRow'),
                    LABEL('Table', _for='tableName'),
                    INPUT(_type='text', __name='tableName',
                          _id='tableName',
                           _style="width:150px;", _class='listPanelRow'),
                    INPUT(_type='submit', _value='Add'),
                    _id='permissionForm',
                    formstyle='table2cols')

    I want my form to display with the label above the input field. 
    The above code is producing a form with the label ahead of the
    input field.  I know that formstyle is supported for SQLFORM, but
    is it available in just the FORM helper as I'm trying to use it here?

    Thanks
