Forum OpenACS Q&A: 3 column layout possible in Survey?

I'm looking to build a series of complex registration forms. I'd like to use some form of ad_form, along with the ease of use of surveys. But I notice that survey creates one long (and rather unfriendly to the eye) column of questions. Ideally, I would like to create one, two and three column forms. How can I modify the layout of survey (or ad_form)?

Are two and three column layouts possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Ryan ,
If you are using ad_form
To give another format to the forms..
On the .adp pages you have to use
for instance instead of: "<formtemplate id="form_name"></formtemplate>
You can do:
<formtemplate id="form_name">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
      <formwidget id="input_name1">
</td>
<td>
    <formwidget id="input_name1">
</td>
<td>
    <formwidget id="input_name2">
</td>
</table>
</formtemplate>
"

Other way to approach the same is to modify the
/acs-templating/resources/forms/standard.adp or create your own template for forms

I am not sure if that is what you are looking for , hope this helps
