OK ... that's the styles covered ... but to add instructional text to the right of the flashform textbox? the label of the textbox is already being used.
to be honest, I'll settle for a tooltip when it gets focus instead. Anything. I'm rapidly losing being "fussy" but surely free text can be added onto the flashform? is there no such thing as <cflabel>* Please ensure the format is 'Surname, FirstName'</cflabel> ... I'm not asking for _too_ much, am I?
