  2. I wouldn't think you would have to attach the image to the actual form. Can't you place it outside the form. So the form can be in a div that is floated left and then the image can be in a div that is floated right?

  3. you would think width of the page is 900px; so there is 489px; room for the form. Can i just attach it in the form somehow ? or is css the best guess?

  4. If you attach it to the form, you will need to place it via CSS as a background image on the main container and then position it to where you want it show up.

    If you want it in a field, you can use the HTML field, and place your img src in there and then try to position that field via CSS.

    So you have 3 options in total.

  7. Instead of using negative margins on your .post-instructions1 class, you should float the form's parent div left and assign a width to it. Then place your .post-instructions1 div immediately after that, float it right (as you are doing) and assign a width. Then clear them both in the following div. This is going to be the most bulletproof way to do the columning, unless you regress back to using a two column table.

    Or you will need to place this via CSS to the #gform_wrapper_3 div and position the background image accordingly to where you want it show.

  9. please do you have an example of the "Or you will need to place this via CSS to the #gform_wrapper_3 div and position the background image accordingly to where you want it show. "

    full like im retarded please lol

    see the issue is if i did what you said with the css it then puts the form at the bottom of the page with " clear " or not, because of the " edit " wile logged in and post page title div, it spans the full length of the image so therefore it dose not work and the form is then under at the bottom.

    question
    what can i use as a min. to get the form to render on the cust temp? im using this now is there something that i can use to just render the form replacing

    <div id="container">
    			<div id="content" role="main">
    
    				<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
    
    					<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>
                        <?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>

  12. Any idea?

    Posted 11 years ago on Monday June 11, 2012 | Permalink
  13. Ok the issue is solved to much to explain but here is the solution if you want to put an image next to the form and have the form rap around the image this is the page structure and the css notice the bottom fields wrap around the form also this works in all browsers including iphone/pad also ie 6,7,8,9 http://nichedeliverysystem.com/post-new-ad/ if after site is done http://www.adszoom.com/post-new-ad/

    ( please excuse all the font-family:Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; )

    for some reason this is the only way all browsers would change from serif as chose 1 lol
