Edit newform.aspx to group controls

  Asked By: Carmen Reilly         Date: Sep 05, 2009      Category: Sharepoint      Views: 555
 

I modified the default newform.aspx, i.e., made the default list form
web part invisible and added a data form web part.

I tried <FIELDSET> tag to group controls but to no avail.

Anyone has any suggestions how this can be done?

To do this you should normally create a copy of the newform.aspx in
SharePoint Designer. Remove the listview webpart from the page and add
a custom dataform web part  in its place. Then use the properties of the
list in SPD to associate the new page with the list  as the Newform.aspx
page.

I have done the steps in your email. Afterwards, I can see the table
row for each field and its corresponding input control. For example, I
can rearrange the table rows.

But how do I group  the controls  to make the page more professionally
looking?
