Blank space underneath the form

  1. I've been searching through the forums, but haven't been able to find the right solution for this.

    After adding a form on a page, I notice a huge white space underneath the submit button. Visiti http://www.ipadacademy.nl/trainingen/ontdek-de-ipad/2012-09-05/ for an example. There are no

     tags around my short code.
    
    Any idea how to solve this? It looks pretty bad... Thanks again!

  2. It looks like there is something in your installation adding additional < br > and < p > tags. Take a look at the source of the rendered page.

    [html]
    <div class='gform_footer top_label'> <input type='submit' id='gform_submit_button_3' class='button gform_button' value='Verzenden' tabindex='12' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='is_submit_3' value='1' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='gform_submit' value='3' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='gform_unique_id' value='500698373c74f' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='state_3' value='YToyOntpOjA7czo2OiJhOjA6e30iO2k6MTtzOjMyOiJmYzc0YTMyYTEzMzg1ZDFlYWEzNTQxNjkyZmM2NzUzNCI7fQ==' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='gform_target_page_number_3' id='gform_target_page_number_3' value='0' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' class='gform_hidden' name='gform_source_page_number_3' id='gform_source_page_number_3' value='1' /><br />
                <input type='hidden' name='gform_field_values' value='' /></p></div>
    </p></form>
    </p></div>

    Those < br > should not be at the end of each line, and the < p > tags should not be there at the end. Try a different theme and see if the problem persists. I suspect it will not.

    It could also be coming from a plugin. You can test for both theme and plugin conflicts by following the instructions here http://rkt.gs/testing

  3. Thanks, it seems to be a problem with my theme. I will ask them how I can solve it!

  4. OK, please report back with the resolution once you solve it.

  5. The solution was pretty easy: surrounding the code with [raw] [/raw] removes the white space!

    Interesting solution. Glad you got it figured out.

  7. If your theme contains that [raw] shortcode you might have other issues in the future. I ran into that exact trouble in the past. The addition of the raw shortcode messes with the processing of all shortcodes in your installation.

  8. Thanks Chris. I didn't discover any other problems, so I'm good for the moment :-) Should I ran into other issues, I'll make sure to let you know.
