I updated the image link. Sorry about that. Yeah, some themes have quite a bit of scripting that comes with them.. I've seen a few similar problems come from the theme itself before. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/16-and-masks-description-text-is-pushed-down#post-35099 Mon, 12 Sep 2011 17:15:24 +0000 bleckett 35099@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks Kevin, your first screenshot is not there :(<br /> Since I disabled all plugins - It must be the theme. I'll see what I can do....

Something in your theme is introducing a rogue paragraph tag after the input and just before the mask script/field description. That's where your extra spacing is coming from.</p> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/hbSMB.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/hbSMB.png</a></p> <p>You can see that in preview mode, it doesn't have the extra paragraph tag..</p> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/shaSn.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/shaSn.png</a></p> <p>That said, there's some script in either your theme or another plugin that's introducing the markup.

Not sure it it's just related to the masks, though... or even some type of caching problem (using Chrome on MAC mostly)? Anyway - just wanted to give you a heads up on that as well.

I'll put this up as well (appears in the Form Preview as well). </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/16-and-masks-description-text-is-pushed-down#post-35030 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 20:24:28 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 35030@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>My tests all work fine.. both with the standard "below input" label option</p> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/AClhK.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/AClhK.png</a></p> <p>and the "above label' option.</p> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/yi9xV.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/yi9xV.png</a></p> <p>I tried a few different masks and description placement options but never could replicate any spacing issue.</p> <p>Honestly, without seeing your theme, I'm not really going to be able to give you any guidance. I need to see what other CSS is being inherited, etc. Whenever you have a publicly accessible version, I'll be happy to take a look.
