I've seen other zen_draw_hidden_field calls that specify multiple values (including styles for the textboxes and widths, maxchars etc) but I can't find the actual code to draw the short description input textbox! If someone could point me in the right direction to where I can find the appropriate code, I'd really appreciate it.



Again, thanks to Jade for this fabulous little mod - it's made my work of transitioning a friend's online store from a flat-file based catalogue to Zen FAR easier.

In fact, a little part of me is actually having fun. (just a small part though, mind you ;))
In my admin, it is a multiline text box (if i understand what you mean by a multiline textbox... it's more than one line tall), but I think you might be able to adjust it in admin/categories.php, where it says

oFCKeditor->height = '200'

in the section marked

// bof modified for Short Description for Categories

Embrace your fun with zen cart (I think it's fun too!)
