If the texts are in a table the put the below code:

<td valign="top">Name: </td>

if the above code doesn't work then put it:
<td style="vertical-align:top">Name: </td>

thanks for the help. I see I worded my initial question incorrectly - I used the standard form block for a form, I didn't actually "create" a form.

Would I place this code in the form set up file? And where? Thanks again

still very much a work in progress.

This is being caused by your iGotStyle.css file on line 12 that is setting the label to "vertical-align:baseline;"

Thanks for looking at this -
To confirm you mean the file at : public_html/packages/rigidlight/themes/rigidlight/style


What would I change the "align to" to set it properly? yes, I'm that new, lol. The help is appreciated.

go to line 130 in your iGotStyle.css file, it will look like this

#mainShell  label {  }

change it to this

#mainShell  label { vertical-align:top }

Thanks so much Weyboat. I had to fix what I wrecked by incorrectly following instructions on the first bit of advice. this would have worked equally as well by the looks of it!

Hi weyboat,
If the parent stylesheet getting changed then it may cause some design issue in other places. So keep avoiding to edit the common styles.

No,
Line 130 only styles the labels in form elements
like this

/** Form Elements ******************************************/
      /***********************************************************/
      #mainShell  form {  }
      #mainShell  fieldset {  }
      #mainShell  label { vertical-align:top }
      #mainShell  input, #mainShell  textarea, #mainShell  select {  }
      #mainShell  input {  }
      #mainShell  input[type="submit"] {  }
      #mainShell  textarea {  }
      #mainShell  select {  }

Open concrete/blocks/form/controller.php

Find the code <td valign="top" class="question"> & replace it with
<td valign="top" class="question" style="vertical-align: top;">

It is in line no 617 approx.
Let me know if it works for you or not.

didn't work, the result is attached/live

You have put the code in wrong place.

The below is the output:
<td valign="top" <td="" class="question" style="vertical-align: top;">class="question">

But it should be
<td valign="top" class="question" style="vertical-align: top;">

Put the html code carefully. If possible then send me the attach of controller.php & I'll edit this.

hmmm. I copied and pasted, so it should be exact. It didn't work

Is the code look like this?

$requiredSymbol=($questionRow['required'])?' <span class="required">*</span>':'';
echo '<tr>
<td valign="top" style="vertical-align:top" class="question"><label for="Question'.intval($questionRow['msqID']).'">'.$questionRow['question'].''.$requiredSymbol.'</label></td>
<td valign="top">'.$this->loadInputType($questionRow,showEdit).'</td>
</tr>';
