Non-styled, Embeddable Forms

Do you want a form without styles, or a form without styles and without any additional DOM elements?  Form styling typically depends on the HTML fragment of the form.  But if Marketo removed everything but <FORM> tags and the mandatory form elements, then you would find yourself frustrated with the absence of styleable containers.  It's not easy to satisfy both needs.

I think a form templating language makes more sense here. In theory, you can actually already build this yourself, so a fragment like:

<FORM>

     <DIV class="mystylingClass">

          <INPUT class="myFancyInput" type="checkbox" data-marketo-field="unsubscribe">

     </DIV>

</FORM>

can be replaced at runtime with the actual fields.

Similar to the second half of this one:

Personally, I would prefer to have the capability to code the form and simply apply IDs, or whatever's necessary, in order for Marketo to correctly identify the fields for pre-population/submission to Marketo, so that I can leverage existing style sheets from our site and maintain whatever conventions we normally use for our HTML. I was able to apply most of the styles I wanted to eventually, it just made for rather bloated CSS code. Thanks, Grégoire, for leading me to this thread.
