Laserfiche Answers is a community resource that contains many user-provided examples of customizations using custom HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and formulae. If you have a specific customization in mind, searching Laserfiche Answers is generally helpful. However, you can also find sample code in Laserfiche's online documentation, and in the Forms product itself.
