How can I narrow the blank space between fields?

    I am trying to put together an order form that uses the spreadsheet to form widget and the form calculation widget.  One basic thing I can't figure out is how to reduce the blank space between fields on the same line.  Want it to have kind of a spreadsheet look to it.

    The screenshot shows how I would like it to look (top) and how it currently looks (bottom)

    You can adjust the spacing of your fields using a custom CSS code. Please inject the CSS below to your form:

    li#id_3 {

        margin-left: -60px!important;

    }

    li#id_4 {

        margin-left: -60px!important;

    }

    li#id_5 {

        margin-left: -60px!important;

    }

    How to know the ID of your form fields? Open the form in published mode and inspect the field. See my screencast below.

    How can I pause the screencast?  Never mind - got what I needed.

    OK - think I got the right and left spacing thing down using CSS.

    Next 2 questions are:

    * Can I eliminate the need to click the 'Autofill' button and just have it automatically autofill when the user exits the part# field?

    * How do I make the Ext Price  read only?  The user should not be able to change the calculated field.
