    Also, the form I build has labels on the left from input fields. On my website labels jump on top of them.

    The form I design on your platform looks like this:

    The form I get on my website deforms into this:

    As mentioned earlier, when the width of form embedding section is lesser than the form width it will be adjusted automatically and displays the responsive form. This is causing the form to display the labels on the top of the input fields. Please try decreasing the left section of the table to 56% so that the form should be displaying correctly as below:

    Hope this information helps!

    Thank yo for the above, this makes the difference.

    I think this was due to the fact I set the form width of 432px, but the background is 517px wide.

    I made background transparent now, but how can I reduce or remove it please?

    I have moved your other question related to transparent background to a separate thread and shall be addressed there shortly.
