Displaying short text input fields in a table

    Hello:

    How can I create a table that combines prepopulated data and data from short text input fields? 

    Currently I have short text input fields that are being populated by a spreadsheet to form widget.  My thought was to hide the short text input fields and copy thier values into the input table or matrix.  But when I type {description}, {ListPrice} into the calculated values area of the input table and test it, nothing displays.

    I also thought of putting the input fields into a table using HTML but it seems like I only have access to editing the CSS not the actual HTML.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    You may use the static text element to create the table on your form and display the text you need, this guide will help you passing the data from the input fields to the text element: https://www.jotform.com/help/418-Pass-an-Input-Field-to-a-Text-Field 

    I hope this helps.

    Hello Kevin:

    Duh!  I am already using the text element to display some of my other input field data but I had not noticed that it has a table option.  

    Thank you so much!
