where/what is the "view source?" - need to change layout/style

    hi, I want to change the colour and style of some of the form's elements. The documentation on http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/CSS_Targeting_Samples is great, but I see nowhere where I can find and change the source code. I know by right-clicking, I can view the source code, but where can I change it?

    Thanks.

  2. You would need to FTP into your web hosting account, locate the relevant folder and files and then edit them there using a text editor or an editor like Dreamweaver. You can't edit markup directly from the view source window.. that's just for viewing.

    That said, you can't change the form layout/markup. That's dynamically built and for it to work as intended, it needs to be left as is. You can however manipulate the look and feel of the form by adding new CSS rules. You would add these new custom rules to the end of the style.css file of your active theme.

    You can find more about how to properly target specific elements for CSS manipulation in the documentation here.

    If you need help accessing your files via ftp, etc. You should contact your web hosting company for guidance on that portion.
