Fields in XDP - 6.1 vs 6.5 - floating or not?

Question

I have a customer form that is being rendered in 6.1 and the fields appears to be behaving like floating fields. You can see the below picture that the <period> is flush against the word SCRUBBED12.

The same XDP rendered in 6.5 is as expected - fixed width.

You can see in Designer, it is not a floating field. It is a Text Field overlaid on to Static Text.

What is unusual is that UNDER the field is the following static text.

I have never seen this. Is this some notation for floating fields?

Thanks,

Charles

Hi @crich2784 ,Could you confirm is you have enabled mfDataDependentFloatingField on the profile as captured here in scripting section:https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65/content/forms/html5-forms/faqHopefully it should resolve the issue for you.

Ok, I found that this is a legacy/deprecated notation for floating fields - awesome that I know the problem.  Now the problem is that they use the fields in HTML5 to modify the data and floating fields are not interactive in HTML5 - ugh.  Anybody have any ideas for a workaround, that would be great.
