      FTP the file to your computer, open the file in your HTML editor (I use MS Frontpage), You will see two lines for each feild name.  The first line will be the displayed name.  The second line will be the variable name for the form submit process. 
      I've done this many times. Once you have what you want FTP the file back to the server.  You can even rearrange things, add pictures or graphics.  I have even moved multiple form options to the same line to keep the form shorter.

      done thank you
      My form1.html is table using Composer.,
      First Column is the graphic image. 2nd col has just the field names from db so I added text in front of the field label then  changed the field label text color to the backgroun color so it is invisible. It appears to work.

      Making text invisible is not a good way to hide text.  Try this, go to the form where you know the text is invisible and highlight this area by dragging your mouse across it. 
      The text that is displayed in you form is nothing more than text to display.  The form field names are already hidden in the HTML input statement.

      In the example below (taken from a simple form created direct from the generator you will see the variable FirstName.  The first time it appears is the text displayed on your form.  The second time this name appears is the variable name that "MUST NOT" change.  Note the "input" statement.  This is the form variable that is used to submit the form data. 
      You can change the first one but "DON"T" change the second one.  This is true for as many field names as your form has. 

      <td height="30" width="189" bgcolor="#EFF3F7" bordercolor="#FFFFFF">
      <font face="Verdana" size="2">FirstName</td>
      <td height="30" width="469" bgcolor="#EFF3F7" bordercolor="#FFFFFF">
      <font face="Verdana"><input type=text name='FirstName' size=20>*</td>
