Mark-up of forms

[Roel Veldhuizen]

Hi All,

How can I adapt the markup of a form? For example I want the form
shown in two columns with input fields instead of one.
If this is not possible in a form xml, could I build forms in ftl pages?

Thanks in advance,

Roel Veldhuizen

Yes, as soon as the widget form capabilities are exceeded Freemarker is the way

Check out the EditProduct page:

https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/catalog/control/EditProduct?productId=WG-1111

Look at its form definition in the ProductForms.xml file to see how it  
does multi-column and other neat things.

Hi Roel,
you can use the position attribute of the field tag.
