I maintain a module called formdefaults that adds and alters descriptive text and labels on forms using the formalter hook. There is a known compatibility issue with CCK that I haven't had the time to get to the bottom of, but the module does allow you to add arbitrary markup fields as instructions to any form. <div><br></div><div>I'd love help fleshing this out if that fits your use case.</div><div><br></div><div>Meet me in the form defaults issue queue if that's the case. </div><div><br></div><div>Dave</div><div><div><div>On Mar 18, 2010, at 10:49 AM, Ernst Plüss wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Hi Ezra<br><br>Once defined, a CCK text field shows up as a label and a form field to enter text.
