In reply to: [Contact Form 7] How to Add time pickerContact Form 7 has some Datepicker support via the new HTML5 date input type (see http://contactform7.com/date-field/) but this is currently only supported on some browsers – see http://www.wufoo.com/html5/types/4-date.html
Contact Form 7 does provide jQuery UI-based fallback for the date and number input fields. See http://contactform7.com/faq/does-contact-form-7-support-html5-input-types/
You can now also use Contact Form 7 Controls to implement this without writing any code – use the “Enable HTML5 input type fallback” option.

float: left. This is likely to cause problems.Also
<padding-top: 3px>has probably been used the wrong way. The example below adds a top padding to a <p> in an inline style – hopefully that would help 🙂<p style="padding-top : 3px;"></p>You could consider using Contact Form 7 Skins to style your Contact Form 7 Forms.

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] add form ruleLooks like you are looking for Conditional Logic which is not available directly in the Contact Form 7 plugin.
This sort of conditional logic is not available directly in Contact Form 7. It can be done via custom programing but you would need to be rather skilled at WordPress development using PHP and/or jQuery.
Some of the premium Form plugins do offer some Conditional Logic including Gravity Forms and Ninja Forms.
