Very strange issue. Even if it should be by default that description text appears prior to the actual form, it is not the case I am experiencing. Even more strange, I run two sites on one Drupal installation, and on the first one the order of appearance is ok, but on the other site it is reversed. Any suggestions?

I just hit this one myself.

This is a result of messing with adding fields to the Webform content type via CCK. If you then delete the fields then the ordering is still messed up.

CCK, in some cases, add a serialized array named content_extra_weights_webform to the variable table.

In order to fix, (essentially reset) you'll need to delete this variable value from the variables table. If you don't know how to go into the database using something like PHPMyAdmin then you'll have to wait to see if this can be addressed.

This was fixed in newer version of webform, which now have the webform options listed under admin/content/node-type/webform/fields. See #413774: Allow Webform form location to be reordered through CCK field ordering.
