BeanEditForm - multi col?
Hi,
I'm trying to maximise screen real estate in some pages and was wondering if
there is an easy way to make the BEF multi-col - even two col would do the
trick - any getter annotations etc. to get it to close one div and start
another - thanks.
Regards,
Jim.

You're welcome!

That's a nice solution. :) Don't forget the labels.

Instead of using Javascript to find the button, use BeanEditor instead and
create the submit button yourself. BeanEditForm is just a Form with an
Errors component, a BeanEditor and a submit button.

Thanks Thiago - the CSS idea you mention sounds promising, though rather
than using something IE doesn't support, I'll just float-left and clear-left
the fields divs using CSS, use some JS to identify the button div and
clear-both that one - this seems to do the trick in the small set of cases
that I require - thanks for the pointers.
Regards,
Jim.

You can do that using CSS 3 and the nth-of-type() pseudoselector
(http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/pseudoclass-nthoftype) to only clear
the 2n <div class="t-beaneditor-row>, but Internet Explorer doesn't
support it. The other solution would be change the CSS classes through
Javascript.
BeanEditForm and BeanEditor are meant to be simple, so they don't support
what you want out of the box.
