Do you want the label in the same table cell as the checkbox? If so, you should wrap the INPUT and label in a TD (as is, TR is assuming you want two separate TD's). So, you could do: TR(TD(INPUT(_type="checkbox",_name="checkbox1",value="on"), "box_label"))) To control cellspacing, add _cellspacing='[number]' to your TABLE() helper (in general, you can add any attribute to an HTML tag by preceding it with an underscore).
