This is probably a no-brainer, but I am trying to resize a form field. By right clicking in the text box, I am able to change the width in characters, but not the height. I am trying to make a "comments field" larger than the other fields on the form.

The goal is to add height and not width to the field.

The page is posted here:


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Try a text area rather than input

<textarea rows=&quot;4&quot; name=&quot;Comments&quot; cols=&quot;29&quot;></textarea>

Note: You can change the orws and columns to fit the size you need. DeZiner

You can apply a style to it.


<input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;UserName&quot; size=&quot;20&quot; STYLE=&quot;font-family:Verdana;font-size:20px;height:16px;&quot;>
