customize list forms in sharepoint designer

  Asked By: Michael Smith         Date: Jan 05, 2010      Category: MOSS      Views: 592
 

I am have two issues for customizing the list forms in sharepoint designer:

1)
I was trying to create a new edit form (aspx) for one of my lists in the
sharepoint. For some lists, it works fine. But for some lists, I got error
message such as "Could not save the list changes to the server." when trying to
create a new edit form.


2)
I was trying to modify an existing edit form of the a list in the sharepoint.
When I open the editForm.aspx in sharepoint designer, there
was something looked like:

<WebPartPages:ListFormWebPart runat="server" __MarkupType="xmlmarkup"
WebPart="true" __WebPartId="{C34AA522-0025-44C7-91AD-FD56E89F8B6A}" >
.......
</ZoneTemplate></WebPartPages:WebPartZone>

and in the design view, there are only three columns which is very different
from what is showing in the edit form in the sharepoint application. How should
I modify the edit form page?



PS: I am using sharepoint 2010 and all the list definition and content types are
customized.

MAKE COPIES OF THAT FORM! Then modify the copy. That way if the thing blows up
you have the original to go back to.
