controlgroup Styling of Form Vertically Grouped Text Inputs #1031
Closed
Description
Currently it is not possible to achieve the "controlgroup" appearance of multiple stacked text inputs similar to the look and feel of the currently provided vertically grouped radio buttons.
This type of style is the most popular among native iphone applications.
Please provide a style for vertically grouping text inputs that contains the label inside the each input field.
An attempt at this was made here:
#771
Maybe this could be expanded upon?

I think this can be useful but we need to approach this holistically to create an alternate styling for forms that is more like a list view like the iOS preferences panel or the login overlay. I have some usability concerns with hiding the label like this because if you use this for anything other than a standard username/password login, it can be hard to use.
In any case, we're going to look at this post-1.0 so I added this issue to the feature request page and am closing this:

Actually, I have seen instances where the label is not hidden and that is probably best.
It is just the input box with the label inside it to the left and when you enter text, it is to the right of that label.

The problem with having it the way it is right now is that the label just takes up too much real estate.
