text area field size

  1. A text area field in my form is the same size as a single-line field - need it to be taller (read: multiple lines). How do I do this?

  2. Sounds like a theme style is potentially overriding the height of the text area. Could you provide a link to your form page?

  4. All the way at the bottom of this file:

    http://50.22.126.73/website2012/wp-content/themes/Karma/style.css

    You have this:

    [css]
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=text],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=email],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=tel],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=url],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=number],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=password],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield select,
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield textarea {
    	font-size:16px;height:20px;padding:5px 5px;
    }

    Replace it with this:

    [css]
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=text],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=email],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=tel],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=url],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=number],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield input[type=password],
    body .gform_wrapper .gform_body .gform_fields .gfield select {
    	font-size:16px;height:20px;padding:5px 5px;
    }

    We're getting rid of the text area line.
