Hello

I have installed CodeCharge couple hours ago and I'm trying to figure
out abilities of this program. It seems to be very useful and it would
really speed up my work a lot. There is one thing I find kind of annoying to
me. I am trying to make for example a registration form for new users of my
site. There is about 10-20 TextBox/ListBox fields that a user has to enter
in order to be registered by the system. Such number of input fields make
the page pretty unclear, so it would be a good idea to separate some fields
from another by e.g. a comment desribing class of forms below.
So is it possible to make such a form using CodeCharge?

e.g.:

Your personal data: (comment)
First Name (input)
Last Name (input)
e-mail (input)
Some other data (comment)
Do you want spam (checkbox)
Really ? (checkbox)
.
.
and so on.

I found that it's possible to set a type of field to Label, but it doesn't
look very good either because the field caption area still exists.

Please, help.

Greetings,
Tomasz Luczynski

So far I've handled this in a couple of ways.
1. Use the label as you tried, but you can remove the caption and leave it
blank. That comes out ok. Or set the caption to the be separator text you
want and leave the field unbound.

2. When you generate the pages you have options like 'w/ Templates'. Using
templates will generate a html page, with the same name, that you can open
and edit in an html or gui editor like GoLive and UltraDev. Using those you
can get fancier with formatting. After you finish getting the html the way
you want, be sure to uncheck the Generate HTML box or Code Charge will
overwrite your modified html with it's own when you re-generate. Also save
the html tweaking till last.
