Hi Everyone,
Why is it that when I create a form in DW, it adds so much space inbetween rows? I don't want all of the extra space in there...any suggestions? I know neater forms can be created in DW.

Thanks for the help,
sibyl

suggestion: use tables put a component by cell and you ll be a happy camper. then if you don't want to see that awful table change the color of the border to the backgroud colour

no not a transpatret gif
1 place a form in yr page
2 inside the form click in add table an icon like this

---------------
| | | |
---------------
| | | |
---------------
| | | |
---------------

you will be able to use it only if you are in default view
3inside a cell add your elements (like tet field, list, buttons etc) one by each cell
that has to solve yr problem if you put this code in your code view you will be able to see what i mean

Thanks for your responses. I think I figured out what the problem was. I had reformatted my H1 tag and it was adding a carriage return after each cell.

Thanks again!
