Hi,
Is there a way to control the length of the text input box on UI? The sample xml form below is using the space at least 2 inches.
Please advise. Thanks!

<fieldset>
    <input type="text" token="series">
      <label>sourcetype</label>
      <default></default>
      <seed>splunkd</seed>
      <suffix>*</suffix>
    </input>
  </fieldset>

Hello,

I don't know if you got an answer to your question and I'm looking for the same thing.
By googling it I found out that you need to use CCS (http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/6662/input-typetext-length-question).

But I'm looking for a way to "control" the length of a text box with simple xml

If anyone can help, it would be great!

Thanks!
