I’m trying to achieve a specific look with a form entry and I have no clue how to do it. Any pointers please.
I’m trying to get the form in the red box on this site to look like the theme demo. I’ve asked in the Studiopress forum and the answer was:
you need to have your submit button with the input field. You have extra divs that aren’t really needed and a fieldset markup that isn’t needed, so the input and submit button will need a fair bit of CSS to get the to line up the way you have it. Strip out the extra markup and they should fit right.
Unfortunately this is all Greek to me. Where do I go for help? How do I ask for help? I’m willing to pay someone who understands what’s going on but I don’t even know what skill I need to be looking for.
How do I get this done?

You can insert your "enter your email address" text into the "email" field in the form builder page as default text to get it inside the input box. You will want to click the two icons to the right of the input box to clear that text when the field is clicked, and to prevent your default text from passing validation. Also, in the field options, you can set the label position to "none" to hide it. See screenshot for an example of what your form builder page should look like.
To move the "submit button", you can do this with a bit of CSS added to your theme's style.css file:
#frm_form_9_container input[type="submit"] {
float: right;
margin-top: -43px;
margin-right: 150px;
}
