Let me break this down for you: If you use the xhtml theme, it generates a table for the form, an each input element is placed on a row with its label.
If you use the simple theme, it is just that, a form with input elements. If you want to use divs, you can just overwrite one of the themes if you want to make it reusable OR you can use the simple theme and put divs inside. Do you have questions? Ask.

This is crazy! Are you suggesting that maybe a FORM tag is written if you modify the templates? I would understand if you said maybe there is not a FORM tag generated if you DO modify the templates! Any solid framework should be usable first and modifiable second. Is the framework usable without writing framework code first?
