Creating custum html forms

[eluser]bidur[/eluser]
Hi all,
I wanted to design a html form.
Being a beginner I could design some simple forms i.e. only one html element per line.
I want to design a form something like this(I want to have multiple Html element in a single line):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Title|______| Name:|___________| Surname:|__________|

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am using the following code:
.
.

$form->title = new inputField("Title", "title");
$form->title->rule = "trim|required|max_length[20]";
$form->title = new inputField("Name", "name");
$form->title->rule = "trim|required|max_length[20]";
$form->title = new inputField("Surname", "surname");
$form->title->rule = "trim|required|max_length[20]";

$form->submit("btnsubmit","SUBMIT");
$form->build_form();
.
.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But this produces something like this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title |______|

Name: |__________|

Surname: |__________|

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am waiting for help.

(Again,I would be happy if you suggest some good book to learn CI)

Thanks

I'm not sure which class/library you are using but you should take a look at the source code of the html and see if a br tag is added or not. If it is the class is responsible for it and you should check if it's possible to change the html creation of the inputs.

Hi , thank you for your reply.
I am using CI RAPYD(Rapyd 0.9.8 for Code Igniter 1.5.4).

And I dont know much about the class/library but I am looking at the samples and trying to proceed and got stuck over here.
The part of the code uses this statement for loading library/class:

$this->rapyd->load('dataobject','dataform');

thanks
