    Default customizing default contact form

    Hi there we have been trying to change the size of the default "message" field in the "Contact Us" form.

    This is the script that we have been editing:

    Code:
    <label for="enquiry"><?php echo ENTRY_ENQUIRY . '<span class="alert">' . ENTRY_REQUIRED_SYMBOL . '</span>'; ?></label>
    <?php echo zen_draw_textarea_field('enquiry', '20', '5', '', 'id="enquiry"'); ?>
    As you can see we have changed it to 20 wide and 5 high but the only change we see is the height.

    Each time we change the width "20" we still see the "message" field which is 100% of the width.

    Even if we change it to "1" it still 100 width of the form.

    is it possible that we are supposed to be changing it elsewhere too?

    Check your stylesheet - it is overriding the width.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Default Re: customizing default contact form

    Thanks i found this in the css file:

    TEXTAREA {
    margin: 0.1em;
    display: inline;
    width: 100%;
    float: right;
    }

    Changed the 100% to 70% and all is fine now.

    Cheers
