Hide the SharePoint 2010 ribbon in a list form

If you have a to disable / hide the SharePoint 2010 ribbon in list forms (such as New / Edit / Display forms), one of the easiest ways is to do it through CSS.

As SharePoint 2010 provides great flexibility with list forms, we can easily modify whatever is required in a particular form for a particular list.

Click "Edit List" icon in the ribbon and it will fire up SharePoint Designer. Open the form where the ribbon needs to be hidden, right click it and choose "Edit File in Avdanced Mode".

The below is div in which the ribbon resides.

<div id=”s4-ribbonrow” class=”s4-pr s4-ribbonrowhidetitle”>
... 
</div>

Now to hide the ribbon, add this to the page.

<style type="text/css">
#s4-ribbonrow{ display:none; }
</style>

Ribbon gone..
