Getting Data In

Input Type="Text" Length Question

Hey, I'm hoping this will be straight forward 🙂

In the following code:

<fieldset> <input type="text" token="name">

What attribute would I need to add to this input type to increase the size/length of the text box?

The current length is not adequate to display all of the data I wish to enter for a form search.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I managed to solve my own problem lol.

I inserted the following code into a custom application.css file:

input

{ width:500px;}

This CSS code enables me to change the properties of any tag named input. In this case, I just specified a larger width than the default for the text boxes in my form.

You can specify a custom stylesheet within the form element in simple xml:

<form stylesheet="large_input.css">

I can type all the data I wish to type into this textbox however the textbox is too small to display all of this data at the same time
