Losing first characters on "Name" field input

    I have a form that I need some help with. I have tried using name field in normal and simple. Simple is fine but the "normal" name field which has First and Last keeps dropping the first 2-4 characters of the input field and the description "First" or "Last".

    What have I missed? http://goo.gl/y9hRI

  2. Tried pulling up your site a few times here, but I keep getting a 500 Internal Server error.

  3. Yep, no love seeing your page.. it just timed out. *crickets*

    I'm assuming this is a theme-related style issue but can't tell you until we can actually see the form.

    Overloaded site on Godaddy VM. They are resolving. Please check again. Thanks for your help.

  5. Still no good here.. timed out again. GoDaddy pretty much sucks for hosting.. well, for pretty much everything but that's another deal.

    Whenever you get that issue resolved let us know and we can take a look.

    Looks like they are back up.

    Would appreciate a look when you have a chance.

  7. The text-indent here is what is causing your issue:

    [css]
    #content .post li {
    list-style: disc inside none;
    padding-left: 30px;
    margin-left: 5px;
    text-indent: -15px;
    }

    If you want to keep that selector, you can add this to your theme's stylesheet:

    [css]
    .gform_wrapper li, .gform_wrapper form li {
    text-indent: 0 !important;
    }

    Thanks Rob! I'll make a mental note to look for text-indent on li in the future!
