Hi,
I’m losing the left border on my Hours field in IE7 and it seems to be a result of the IE7 specific hack in the forms.css:
.gform_wrapper .gfield_time_hour input, .gform_wrapper .gfield_time_minute input{*margin-left:-10px}
It happens with the default and classic themes. Changing this to *margin-left:0px seems to fix it up but I’m curious as whether this is just me and whether this is the best place to address this issue…
Regards
Gareth
the best way to do any customizations is to put the new CSS declarations in your theme style sheet. That way it's not overwritten by future updates. If you prefer, you can copy the entire contents of the forms.css file, append it to your style.css file and then go to the form settings page and set the "output css" option to no.
A bug would imply it was unexpected, but it's clearly commented as IE7 specific in the stylesheet and not a bug. The form styles are meant to be a generic starting point and while they work well with most themes, many times the theme-specific CSS conflicts with or influences the form styles. One size fits all never really does.
Of course we'll be revisiting and revising the styles and markup as we go along, so eventually this may change.
My suggestion is simply to make the adjustment in your theme stylesheet and that way future updates won't affect any of your changes.
