Creating your own layout within the templating system as Don said works like this:

<formtemplate id="myform">
some html stuff ...<br><br><br>
<formwidget id="mywidget1" size="20" ...>
...
</formtemplate>

As soon as the contents of the formtemplate tag are not empty it will use those to render the form instead of rendering it automatically.

That was the piece I was missing.

I had done that, but wasn't reading the error message in the logs correctly.

formbutton:ok  :)

I was missing the :ok on that widget.

Thanks for the help everyone!
